How do you reach your target audience?
We target your ads based on Topic Tags
Topic Tags categorize content
Every question on Stack Overflow has to have at least one Topic Tag which matches the content.
Our tagging rules
Are Topic Tags the same as hashtags?
They are similar in what they do - put content into a category(ies). But very different in how...
Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook have no structure or rules around hashtags. Someone could add as many as they want to a post and the hashtags don’t have to be relevant to the content.
On some platforms hashtags are used because they are popular, rather than relevant.
Topic Tags predict and reflect current technology trends
Since 2010, our Topic Tags have predicted and reflected changes in the market.
