Separate keywords with commas or new lines. Any language and alphabet works.

Kept as you type it, for example TIGTools.

Hashtag style

CamelCase (#TravelTips) is recommended: it is easier to read, and screen readers can pronounce the words separately. Hashtags work the same in either style.

3

Suggested: 5. You can change it.

Instagram guidanceInstagram's guidance and limits change; check the current Help Center. A Story usually needs only one or two hashtags; the default maximum here is 5. Choose the single most specific tag for the sticker, such as the event, place or topic, and add a second one in text only if it adds something.

Type at least one keyword to get suggestions. A niche alone adds its general tags.

How it works

Instagram's guidance and limits change; check the current Help Center. A Story usually needs only one or two hashtags; the default maximum here is 5.

Choose the single most specific tag for the sticker, such as the event, place or topic, and add a second one in text only if it adds something.

How the suggestions are made: your keywords are cleaned (letters of any alphabet, digits and underscores are kept; spaces, punctuation and emoji are removed) and expanded into variants such as English singular and plural forms and combinations with your niche, location and format. Hand-picked English tags for the chosen niche are added, duplicates are merged regardless of case, and the list is ordered from your exact keywords to broad tags. Nothing is looked up online, so no popularity figures are shown: check how a tag is actually used on Instagram before relying on it.

Examples

Instagram Stories: “coffee shop”

Keywords “coffee shop” with the Business niche and the default settings give:

#CoffeeShop #CoffeeShops #CoffeeShopTips

Instagram Stories: “sunset hike”

Keywords “sunset hike”, the Nature niche and the location “Cappadocia” give:

#SunsetHike #SunsetHikes #SunsetHikeCappadocia

Frequently asked questions

How many hashtags should I use on Instagram Stories?

This generator selects 3 by default for Instagram Stories and suggests at most 5; you can raise the maximum to 30 if you need to. More hashtags rarely help: keep the ones that describe the content precisely. Platform guidance changes, so check Instagram's current help pages.

Where do I put the hashtags on Instagram?

In a Story, add a hashtag with the hashtag sticker, or type it in a text box. Only use hashtags that make sense for viewers who tap them.

Does the generator use AI, trends or real post counts?

No. The suggestions come only from the words you type, simple spelling rules and a hand-written list of tags for each niche. The tool does not contact Instagram or any other service, so it cannot know how popular a tag is, and it never shows invented numbers.
