Tailwind originally made a name for itself in the blogging world as a must-have Pinterest scheduler.
But did you know you can use Tailwind to post to Instagram too??
Here’s how:
– Much like they do for Pinterest, Tailwind will publish your Instagram posts for you at ideal times, when your followers are most likely to be reached.
– You can plan your posts ahead of time using their scheduler. This allows you to create a week’s worth of posts at one time.
– They offer a Hashtag Finder Tool. They’ve offered the Hashtag Finder for a while. But they’ve just revamped it and it is AMAZING!
A little about Hashtags:
Hashtags are proven to increase your Instagram engagement. If you want to reach your full Instagram potential, you need to be using relevant hashtags.
Adding hashtags to your posts can be time-consuming. Even if you think you’re saving time by having your frequently used hashtags in a document on your computer for you to copy and paste from.
Now you simply start typing and Tailwind will do the rest.
By choosing the right hashtags, you’re more likely to reach the right people. Using Tailwind’s powerful Analytics feature will provide you with useful insights into what your audience is connecting with.
From there, Tailwind will be able to offer the best hashtags and posting times for maximum reach and engagement.

Features to love about the Hashtag Finder 2.0:
– Hashtag suggestions appear and refresh as you type, whether you include hashtags or not!
– You can shuffle them around or dismiss the ones you don’t love.
– You can hover over any hashtag to see how popular it is – so you can pick the BEST, most searched one.
– The hashtags appear colour coded so you can choose tags in your Niche, Best, Good, and Competitive.
I’ve included a little clip of the Hashtag Finder in action to give you a better visual. See Tailwind’s YouTube video below:

I love Tailwind for Instagram. I did the free trial for Pinterest, but haven’t committed yet.
I use Tailwind primarily for Pinterest because I love the Tribes feature. I wish they’d do a Facebook integration! Thanks for the comment, Rachel.
