# How to get hashtag suggestions for Instagram in CoSchedule

| Updated September 11, 2025

**You can get hashtag suggestions for your Instagram image uploads right inside CoSchedule.** You will need to have the RiteTag extension for [Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ritetag/hclhpnhohpmlbadmeieecaandnglfodm) or [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ritetag-ritekit/) installed to use the solutions detailed in the video and the text below. [Here's how](https://ritekit.crisp.help/en/article/heres-how-to-add-the-ritetag-pro-browser-extension-to-a-browser-such-as-operavivaldibraveetc-that-uses-chrome-browser-extensions-d5gb1s/) to use the Chrome extension in your Vivaldi, Torch, Brave, Opera, Dolphin, Yandex, Puffin, and Microsoft Edge browsers.

**JUST ADDED**: The RiteTag extension's hashtags for image solution shown in the video below also works with all web to **Instagram direct publishing** and scheduling solutions, including CoSchedule's - **and all the others, too**! Just follow the instructions for desktop-to-phone Instagram scheduling in the video for use in direct Instagram desktop upload solutions.

**NOTE:** The one minute video below shows the **previous RiteTag hashtag suggestions modal** (popup). The current RiteTag extension is far faster to use since you see all the suggestions without scrolling, select what you want, copy, and close the modal.

## With the RiteTag extension installed in your browser you can do as above and also:

**Highlight a block of text** for the right-click **Generate Hashtags** solution   

The hashtags are color-graded based on real-time engagement, saving lots of research time, and it's a breeze to add any or all.

1) Start a new post in CoSchedule by clicking on the **+** in any day in a CoSchedule Calendar.
