Healthcare marketers are already starting to leverage Facebook hashtags to help their brands visibility and discoverability. If you're still not sure what to with hashtags on Facebook, here are 6 great tips to help you get started.
4. #1. Experiment Strategically

the ones you already use on Twitter) on
your public Facebook posts.

able to search, see & click on your hashtag
making it easier to discover your brand.

see what works!

up with new hashtags for your brand.

The Project, you should be able to find

• Each Facebook hashtag has it’s own
unique URL e.g.
www.facebook.com/hashtag/hcsm

platforms to encourage more

mobile start using hashtags on your mobile
postings to get you used to crafting
strategic posts that will catch the attention
of a growing mobile audience.

hashtag and thus discover
people, brands, competitors & even
