Why Shuffle Hashtags?
Instagram's algorithm monitors repetitive behavior. Using the exact same hashtags in the exact same order on every post can trigger spam detection, potentially leading to:
Posts hidden from hashtag searches
Lower visibility in Explore
Flagged as automated behavior
How Shuffling Works
Fisher-Yates Shuffle Algorithm
We use the industry-standard Fisher-Yates algorithm for truly random shuffling:
| Step | Action | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Start from last element | i = n-1 |
| 2 | Pick random index j (0 to i) | j = random(0, i) |
| 3 | Swap elements at i and j | array[i] ↔ array[j] |
| 4 | Move to previous element | i = i-1 |
| 5 | Repeat until i = 0 | Fully shuffled |
Possible Combinations
With 30 hashtags, there are 265,252,859,812,191,058,636,308,480,000,000 possible orders! That's 265 nonillion — more than atoms in the observable universe. Your chances of repeating an order are effectively zero.
Hashtag Strategy Tips
| Tip | Why It Works |
|---|---|
| Mix sizes | Use a blend of popular (1M+), medium (100K-1M), and niche (<100K) hashtags |
| Stay relevant | Only use hashtags that match your content — irrelevant tags hurt reach |
| Rotate sets | Keep 3-5 different hashtag sets and rotate between them |
| Use all 30 | Posts with 30 hashtags get more reach than posts with fewer |
| First comment option | Put hashtags in first comment for cleaner captions |

Frequently Asked Questions

Instagram allows up to 30 hashtags per post. Studies show posts with 28-30 hashtags get the most reach. Using fewer means missing potential discovery opportunities.
Both work! Instagram has confirmed hashtags in comments work the same as captions. Many prefer comments for cleaner captions. Post the comment immediately after publishing for best results.
Some hashtags are blocked by Instagram due to spam or inappropriate content. Using them can hurt your reach. Search the hashtag on Instagram — if no results appear, it's likely banned.
Rotate between 3-5 different sets weekly. Within each set, shuffle the order every post. Update your sets monthly to stay relevant with trending hashtags.
The order doesn't affect which hashtag pages you appear on. However, varying the order signals authentic behavior to Instagram's anti-spam systems. Shuffling is about avoiding detection, not optimizing reach.
This tool shows a shuffle history during your session. For permanent storage, copy your favorite shuffled sets into a notes app. Many users keep a "hashtag bank" document.
