Hash Tags Facebook | New 2019

Facebook revealed the arrival of hashtags. This is a considerable step in the direction of service in real time.

Now, when you will click a hashtag in Facebook, users will have the ability to see all public content pertaining to that search phrase. Obviously you will have the ability to join the conversation by means of a public post, quoting this hashtag.

Concretely, what does this adjustment allow?

- Look for a specific discussion (vs. straightforward search term), comply with a media event, a program, an individuality, ... just like on Twitter.

- Having the ability to see posts coming from other applications, that have been shared on Facebook (eg Instagram) - many people are 'cross-posting' on numerous networks, consisting of Facebook - it will certainly be simpler to find them

- Having the ability to click hashtags in comments or blog posts straight from the page hashtags, or standing updates from good friends or pages.

" Hashtags are just the very first step to help people to conveniently find out what others are claiming about an offered topic as well as to take part to public discussions," states Greg Lindley from Facebook.

For Facebook, it is a straightforward method to produce more involvement as well as even more money making possibilities (funded hashtags, trends, posts, use Facebook as a second screen, etc.).

What's the factor?

Thanks to this new feature, the condition updates about general subjects or revolving around 'communities of interest' not always constructed in a group, and also one of the most interesting as well as outstanding blog posts, will certainly end up being viral without the assistance of pals. Not only your buddies will see your articles and Facebook standings, yet possibly tens of thousands of individuals.

Indeed, just a few persons take notice of 'public statuses' you composed on Facebook (yes, they were currently available in Facebook yet you needed to utilize the search bar, then filter by 'Public conditions'). Thanks to hashtags, the exposure of these blog posts will certainly enhance considerably, as they can identify unique discussions in the middle of the 'buzz' of all posts.

Will media confiscate it?

Certainly. Media (particularly broadcasters) have actually taken on Twitter for its conversational power. Facebook will allow to get to an even bigger audience. Media will certainly need to aggregate as well as choose the most appropriate web content as well as republish some on all screens to reveal the community she's valued. That obstacle will certainly be increasingly difficult.

And what regarding brand names?

Undoubtedly great information. The arrival of hashtags could suggest a resurgence of the 'Social' part of social media. The distinct strength of Twitter is to produce discussions at range, swiftly, as well as appropriate to media or brands, with virality. On the other hand, Facebook advertising is typically summarized to a race to 'followers' and 'like', hard-pushed with sponsored posts, Facebook advertisements & ridiculous contests (ie agencies focusing just on the 'media' part of Facebook).

Yet, I have always kept that the worth of social is to produce, reinforce and amplify the 'social money' that brand name's ambassadors want to develop with a pertinent discussion. Provided the bigger size of Facebook, it is obvious that adding the conversational measurement using the hashtag is a significant property for 'conversational projects', significant for the brand. Brand names have after that to intensify this web content to the 'easy majority', money grubbing of this social web content.

UNITED STATE brand names understood it, as revealed by an Altimeter's analysis throughout the last 'Superbowl' in February, brand names have actually plainly favoured hashtags and also destination URLs at the cost of Facebook.

Ever since, Facebook has actually responded (much better late than never). Up to media, brand names as well as consumers to react as well.
