Hashtags are such a prominent part of culture today that it’s rare to find anyone who doesn’t know what they are.

Yet even as most people have come to know what they are, many people still don’t understand how to use hashtags.

Hashtags, once your phone’s pound sign, now have a place on most popular social networks, including Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Instagram, and Pinterest.
