Second, hashtags can also be used to start a contest, campaign, launch and monitor events such as #SuperBowl, provide news and promote an advocacy (#bostonmarathon). Creating a good reputation and public goodwill will go a long way.

Finally, you can boost your online presence by creating new and creative hashtags and track engagement rates from users, search engines, social analytics tools and hashtag apps. This provides a wealth of information for you to tap into, joining conversations and engaging with interested followers.
