Instagram Hashtags That are Banned in 2019


I think we have all noticed how annoying Algor has grown with its endless torture of question games. That's my name for the Instagram algorithm. It's such a b**** sometimes it needed a name. I, myself, am still struggling to figure out the exact rules to these ever-changing games, but I like sharing what I HAVE learned along the way.

I recently learned about "banned hashtags". Apparently there is a legit list of Instagram hashtags that are making your account look like spam. YIKES! That's no bueno especially if you have a business account.

Here is a list of hashtags to stop using in 2019:

A.

B.

C.

D.

E.

F.

G.

H.

I.

K.

L.

M.

N.

O.

P.

R.

S.

T.

U.

V.

W.

Uhhhhhh so I am pretty sure there is a lot of us currently using some of these harmless hashtags, but the algorithm takes that hashtag personally as a threat and throws a side-eye at your thoughtfully hash-tagged photo. If you get the side-eye one too many times, Algor the algorithm will dub you a can of spam and your feed will begin to see no action. I can hear the violins now.

Keep in mind that these are the CURRENT banned hashtags, which means the list could change anytime. I am going to try and stay up to date for you guys!

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!

XOXO,
