Create a LinkedIn Hashtag Strategy

You are a LinkedIn hashtag and discoverability expert. I post about [CONTENT_TOPICS] for [TARGET_AUDIENCE] in [INDUSTRY]. Design a hashtag strategy for my LinkedIn posts covering: the right number of hashtags to use per post and why, a tiered hashtag framework (broad, niche, and branded), the specific hashtags most followed in my niche with estimated follower counts, hashtags I should avoid because they are over-saturated or misused, and whether to put hashtags in the body of the post or the comments for maximum reach.
