To add to Paul’s response, the hashtags we use pertain to the subject matter of the Tweet. We primarily use several hashtags within a single tweet. Take a look at our Twitter
page at https://twitter.com/ohioddcouncil for examples.
We also use hashtags (less sparingly) on Facebook. On Facebook, is usually to do with a specific purpose. For example #TechTuesday, #ICYMI, #DYK, #DDAwareness19, etc.

Ohio’s Twitter feed is managed by our public awareness staff and grantee, and usually incorporates a similar message to our Facebook Page. As of today, Ohio’s Council twitter follower count is
435, whereas the FB count is closer to 2,500. We also develop Tweet Sheets for use at our Legislative Day, with sample messages that folks can use to tag their legislators. In 2019, not a single tweet was posted using #DDSupportsMatter. An example is attached.

Hi Walter,
The Massachusetts Council uses twitter, in addition to Facebook, and tracks the metrics for each post. The hashtags are really dependent upon the content of the tweet, the
purpose and what audience we are trying to reach. For example, we often tag individual members of Congress/Senate, in addition to local policymakers since many of them have twitter accounts. Here are a few other hashtags we use:
#accessibility, #autism, #disability, and #stoptheshock.
I’d be happy to chat with you in more detail.
Thanks,
Kristin

We don't. WE don't really have enough to say or the staff bandwidth to tweet . We had thought about using it during legislative session but just haven't gotten there yet. I know we are behind others who are more progressive. At this time
we only use Facebook for social media.

Do any Councils use Twitter for marketing communications?
If so, what hashtags do you use?
