Hashtag Counter

Different social platforms have different practical or hard limits on hashtag usage — Instagram allows up to 30, but engagement research often suggests fewer perform better — so knowing exactly how many hashtags a caption uses matters before posting.

This tool scans your pasted caption for every hashtag (a # symbol followed immediately by letters, numbers, or underscores), counts the total, and lists each one found.

This is useful for checking a caption stays within a platform's hashtag limit, auditing hashtag usage consistency across a content calendar, or quickly extracting the hashtag list from a caption for reuse elsewhere.

Because everything runs locally in your browser, results appear instantly and nothing you type or upload is ever sent to a server.

Bookmark this page if you expect to use this tool regularly — it loads fast and behaves the same way every time, with no account needed.

This kind of task shows up constantly in everyday writing, coding, design, and admin work, which is exactly why a dedicated, focused tool saves so much back-and-forth.

A tool that does one job well, without a cluttered interface or unrelated features competing for attention, tends to be faster to use than a heavier all-in-one app.

If you find yourself needing this often, keeping this page open in a tab is usually faster than digging through a bigger software suite's menus.

Because there's no sign-up or installation step, you can jump straight from a search result to a working tool in a couple of seconds.

The interface is intentionally simple, so there's no learning curve — the input goes in, the result comes out, and that's the whole interaction.

Unlike a heavier desktop application, there's nothing to download, update, or configure before you can start using this tool.
