But those hashtags are what get your image seen by a bigger audience. In order to avoid this clutter, but still be seen, the best thing to do is to hide these hashtags under a \u201csee more\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The process for hiding these hashtags is actually much simpler than you might expect. All you have to do is have<\/span><b> 5 line breaks with a dot in each one<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Here\u2019s an example:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-107897 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/riven-revealed.png\" alt=\"Instagram\" width=\"376\" height=\"669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/riven-revealed.png 376w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/riven-revealed-169x300.png 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When you have the line breaks like this, the hashtags will be hidden like so:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-107898 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/riven.png\" alt=\"Instagram\" width=\"376\" height=\"669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/riven.png 376w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/riven-169x300.png 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Many people will put these in a note-taking app first, and then copy and paste them over to their Instagram post. This can be particularly useful if you have a themed Instagram, and are frequently using the same hashtags!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-107899 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/0.png\" alt=\"Notes\" width=\"376\" height=\"669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/0.png 376w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/0-169x300.png 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So there you have it!
