Common issues & solutions
Hashtag set looks random
Cause
Topic and audience inputs are too broad.
Fix
Use one focused topic, one audience segment, and one intent per generation run.
Reach stays flat
Cause
Only broad hashtags were selected.
Fix
Blend one core term with 2-3 niche variants that match your exact post angle.
Tags look stuffed
Cause
Too many overlapping terms with low contextual relevance.
Fix
Keep only tags that directly describe content intent and user search behavior.
Conversions are weak
Cause
Tag strategy is disconnected from CTA intent.
Fix
Align hashtag clusters to awareness, engagement, or conversion as separate sets.
