How to generate better Instagram & TikTok hashtags

Hashtags still help algorithms understand what your content is about — especially on Instagram and TikTok.

Instead of pasting random blocks of 30 tags, try building structured groups:

  • Main hashtags around your topic
  • Niche / audience hashtags for your community
  • A few boost hashtags for reach (e.g. #fyp, #reels)

The Toolvento hashtag generator follows this structure. Use it as a starting point, then tweak tags to fit your brand and language.

What it does: Enter your topic and optional niche in the tool. Choose Instagram and/or TikTok and options (lowercase, no spaces). You get main, niche and boost hashtags. Click any tag to copy it or copy all at once. All generation runs in your browser; nothing is sent to the server.


Quick start

  1. Enter your topic in the left panel — e.g. fitness, home gym, morning routine. Add niche or audience (optional) for more targeted tags.
  2. Choose platforms — Instagram and/or TikTok. Enable “lowercase” and “no spaces” if you like.
  3. Use the result — click a hashtag to copy it, or use “Copy all hashtags” and paste the list into your post caption or first comment.
  4. Refine — remove tags that don’t fit your brand and add a few that are specific to your niche.

Why use structured hashtags?

  • Algorithms use hashtags (and captions) to categorize content. Clear, relevant tags can help your post reach the right audience.
  • Discovery — people search and follow hashtags. A mix of popular and niche tags can improve visibility.
  • No spam — 30 random trending tags often look like spam. A smaller set of topic + niche + a few boost tags looks more intentional.
  • Reuse — once you have a structure that works, you can adapt it per post (e.g. swap a few topic tags) instead of starting from scratch.

Main vs niche vs boost

  • Main hashtags: Directly describe your content (e.g. #fitness, #homegym, #morningroutine). Use several that match the post.
  • Niche / audience: Who it’s for or the style (e.g. #beginners, #vegan, #smallbusiness). Helps reach a more specific community.
  • Boost / reach: Broad or platform-specific tags that can add exposure (e.g. #fyp, #reels, #viral). Use only a few so the set stays focused.

Instagram and TikTok tips

Instagram: Up to 30 hashtags per post. You can put them in the caption or in the first comment. Many creators use 5–15 well-chosen tags rather than maxing out.

TikTok: No strict limit. Hashtags in the caption help with discovery. #fyp and similar are often used for reach; add a few that match your topic and audience.


Privacy

The generator runs entirely in your browser. Your topic and niche are not uploaded or stored. Safe to use for any account — but always review the final hashtag set before posting.


Final thoughts

Whether you post on Instagram, TikTok, or both, a clear structure (main + niche + a few boost tags) is more useful than a long list of random trending hashtags. Use this tool to get a starting set, then refine it for your brand and each post.
