InstagramHashtag set

Build a tiered hashtag set for a post

Use when you want a balanced mix of broad, mid, and niche hashtags instead of guessing.

The prompt
prompt.txt
Act as an Instagram hashtag strategist.

Post topic: {{topic}}
Niche: {{niche}}
Account size: {{follower_count}} followers

Create a hashtag set of 25 tags split into three tiers:
- Broad reach (5 tags, large but competitive).
- Mid-size (10 tags, moderate competition that an account my size can rank in).
- Niche and specific (10 tags closely tied to my topic and community).

Avoid banned or spammy tags and avoid tags so generic they bury the post. Present each tier as its own list. At the end, give 3 branded or community hashtags I could create and own.

Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
