Yes, we all know hashtags don’t give you direct reach anymore.

But that doesn’t mean they don’t matter.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:

🔍 What hashtags are actually for in 2025
🚫 Why copying and pasting the same list of hashtags every time is hurting your reach (and yes, Instagram can flag it as bot behavior)
🧠 The difference between niche hashtags and content-specific hashtags
📉 Why your “easy strategy” might be the very thing tanking your visibility
✅ And what to do instead 

Hashtags might not be what they once were... but when used right, they still play an important role.
