# How to get hashtag suggestions for text and images in LinkedIn

| Updated September 11, 2025

Firstly, 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. [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.

Using the RiteTag browser extension, I show how to get and add hashtag suggestions by highlighting a block of text or clicking on a photo, including one you're uploading to a LinkedIn post. The hashtags are color-graded based on real-time engagement, saving lots of research time.  
  
**NOTE:** The one minute video below shows the **previous RiteTag hashtag suggestions modal** (popup) - now **Generate Hashtags**. The current RiteTag extension is far faster.

## A) Hashtag Suggestions for Images

1) Start a LinkedIn update by uploading your photo, and when the image preview appears, right-click on the photo and select **Generate Hashtags.**

2) Generate hashtags for any photo in your computer by using the **up arrow button** to the right of the search field.

3) You can also right-click on photos in anyone's posts (or photos in any other site) for the **Generate Hashtags** option.  

## B) Hashtag generation for the text of your post

Highlight a word in your post or a block of text anywhere, right-click and select **Generate Hashtags**. (Highlight text up to 1,000 characters for best results.)
