I just started a business page and Facebook suggested I use Hashtags but I did not know how to do that until I saw your video. Thank you so much this really help me. I am now using hashtags on my posts.

[@VickiONeill]

Thank you, Mari, for sharing the value of hashtags on Facebook! It's been a mystery as to why we should use hashtags for business and whether they were even working. This was extremely helpful - thank you!

[@KatherineCHE]

FINALLY! I've been sporadically adding hashtags to FB posts... so glad they will finally mean something. Thanks for the helpful info, Mari. You always help us understand the cutting edge. ♥

Thank you social media examiner. It’s really helpful. Does this work for paid ads also?

[@derpauleglot9772]

Such an informative video^^ Does anyone know if there´s a way to see how many impressions you get from hashtags? For example, I can see the keywords that get me views on KZbin but I haven´t seen sth. like that on FB. I´m already using hashtags but it´d be good to know how much of an impact they really have.

[@jonathansolomon7960]

[@emilyguidoni77]

Thank you for your video, it was incredibly helpful and gives a lot of insight into how to use hashtags. I have one question though, if you use hashtags, does facebook consider it as a sponsorized add / or adds it to your charges ?
