Hashtags are community-based tags on twitter that are used to annotate tweets and make them findable. To make a user's participation on the social platform more relevant, recommending a hashtag would help a user participate better. This study is an attempt to build a recommender system for hashtag recommendation, and to further study the textual features around hashtags, which assist in their retrieval. The suggested system performs better for tweets with longer text; those with a URL, with multiple hashtags and those that have user mentions.
