Is there an easy way to count the number of tweets posted with a specific hashtag?

Unamo Social Media is great for counting hashtags appearing over a given period of time.

Just enter the hashtag as a main keyword with the hashtag in front like normal and it will count them on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or YouTube.

You can specify by channel or include every channel in your results.

Hope this helps!

To refine the question, let me add my bit. There could be two ways to count the number of tweets with a specific hashtag.

1. Historical Tweets: To count the number of tweets which have been posted in the past having the #hashtag in question.
2. Future Tweets: To count the number of tweets which will be posted in future containing the #hashtag in question.

As Twitter’s own basic search feature neither provides the scale nor the simplicity to count any of the historical or future tweets, the easiest way is to use a dedicated third-party tool.

ExportTweet is a completely dedicated tool for Twitter and Hashtag analytics.

With Hashtag Analytics and Real-Time Tracking For Twitter , you can not only count the number of hashtag tweets but also analyze a great deal of hashtag metrics.

At ExportTweet, you have the freedom to conduct both historical data analysis as well as track and monitor future tweets in real-time.

1. Just go to the Hashtag Analytics page and enter the desired #hashtag. Make sure the “Realtime Tracking” checkbox is selected.
2. Check the sample hashtag report of 100 tweets.

3. After adding the report to the Cart with your desired number of tweets, complete the buying process.

There is actually a FREE and easy way, maybe a little bit too easy, to count the total number of tweets posted with a specific hashtag. And please take my words, the whole process will take you maximum 5 minutes. No sign up, no file export, no manual work - completely effortless.

In this case, we’d need to use a tool developed by my company, Supermetrics, to pull data directly from Twitter into Google Sheets (P/S: Supermetrics also works well with Facebook, AdWords and 35+ data sources).

I’ll show you exactly how to do it in 5 minutes

Step 1: Install Supermetrics on Chrome Store (30-day FREE trial & No Credit Card Required

Step 2: Authorize access to your Twitter account

Step 3: Create a query to fetch all tweets with a specific # into Google Sheets

Let’s go with #Brexit

Step 4: Enjoy the result

You might think I’m biased but just give it a try by starting a free trial. You can have access to all features in the 30-day trial . And the 70k+ users and 4.5 star rating you see in the Chrome Store can’t go wrong.

Due to the costs of the data, there will be no sites that can tell you exactly how many Tweets contain a given hashtag. RiteTag does gives estimates for free, exact data at a cost.

Hashtag Reports from RiteTag (sold separately from the tool, RiteTag PRO): for event, PR and social media marketing agencies, they provide sections that work as a great deliverable for clients, to show the results they garnered, and to secure sponsors for the next similar event.

You can order an interactive report on 100% of the Tweets for up to the last thirty days, that contain a given hashtag at RiteTag. There are many sections, but one not only provides all the people who Tweeted with a certain hashtag, it also enables exporting them by XLS or CSV file for use in other software.

Here’s a bit of what they contain, from the report for #TNW2018, an event:

The reports include detailed insights on sentiment, devices, geodata and much more. Each dataset is exportable, including a full list of Tweets and accounts for further use in ad-targetting, CRM tools, etc. Users can get a quote on a report built from 100% of the Tweets containing a given hashtag for up to the last thirty days.

Of course. There are two main ways to count the number of tweets posted with a specific hashtag. The first method is free and will work well if you need data for an obscure hashtag with few posts.

The second is a paid method but it’s much easier and would give you data beyond the number of posts such as impressions, reach, demographics of users, etc. It involves the use of a tool called Keyhole - A Social conversation tracker

I’ll start by explaining method 1:

1. If the hashtag in question has only been used a few times, you can type it into the Twitter search box and manually count the number of posts returned by Twitter.
   
   Although this may work for a hashtag with 10’s of Tweets, it quickly becomes impractical when you’re trying to get data for a hashtag with 100’s of Tweets. If you’re using an obscure hashtag, follow these steps.
1. Search for the hashtag on Twitter using the Twitter search box located on the top right side of the Twitter header navigation bar.

b. On the search results page, the posts will be ranked by engagement rate. If you want to see all posts in the order they were created, select “Live” from the options bar.

2. The second method involves the use of a social media listening tool. It’s not free but the data you will receive back is invaluable.

Keyhole’s Social listening application collects 100% of posts you’re tracking from Twitter (and other social media channels). It allows you to count hashtags , analyzes the data in an easy to read dashboard and feeds you updates in real-time.

There’s also a streaming page, ex. Audi’s streaming page, that tab can be used to see and play with the raw data. In the streaming tab you’ll see a list of all the tweets gathered from Twitter.

The list can be sorted based on the sentiment, engagement rate, or can be filtered based on keywords in the bio of the author or their geo location.

You can also engage directly with those posts within Keyhole, a feature which is useful if you want to do some customer relationship management within the tool.

It saves time when you’re able to sort the tweets by sentiment and quickly respond to tweets with highly negative sentiment. This is what the streaming tab looks like; You can also click here to see a live example tracking Audi.

Some other tools with similar features: Radian6 , Socialmention, Socialbakers

Keyhole gives you more options by combining a couple of useful tools into one.

It has also another tab called Influencers; The influencer tab contains a list of all the authors creating tweets with your hashtag. That list can be sorted based on the most engaged authors (the number of times they used the hashtag), which is great for picking the winner for a contest that requires a hashtag to be used a set number of times.

It’s also great for picking out influencers who frequently tweet with your hashtag of interest. You can also sort the influencers list by the number of engagement and reach they generate. You can click here to see a live list of influencers for Audi.

The last tab is known as the media tab. The media tab is a collection of all the photos and videos people used when tweeting with your hashtag. It’s sorted by engagement rate and can be quick way to look through the images and videos used by your fans or event attendees. This is what the media tab looks like; You can click here to see a live media page for Audi.

Although there’s a free way to count hashtags on Twitter or other social media platforms, the free method is too time consuming and not worth the effort of manually scrolling and counting. Tools like Keyhole have made the process much simpler, more accurate, and enjoyable at an affordable rate. You can click here to try the tool.
