📋 What the Instagram Hashtag Analytics Scraper does

• 🏷️ Multi-hashtag input. Pass a list of hashtags (without #) for side-by-side analysis.
• 📊 Aggregate metrics. Total post count, average likes, average comments, average views.
• ⭐ Top posts. Top-performing posts ranked by engagement.
• 🔗 Related keywords. Hashtags Instagram associates with the input.
• 👤 Top creators. Top creators using the hashtag.
• 📈 Comparison-ready. Same metrics across all input hashtags for ranking.

The scraper walks Instagram's hashtag pages, fetches engagement metrics, and pushes one structured record per hashtag to the dataset.

💡 Why it matters: picking the right hashtag lifts post reach by orders of magnitude but Instagram doesn't expose comparison metrics in its UI. A live, structured pull beats manual lookup for content strategy and trend research.

📊 Data fields

Each record includes: avgComments, avgLikes, avgViews, hashtagName, hashtagUrl, maxComments, maxLikes, maxViews, relatedKeywords, scrapedAt, topCreators, topPosts, totalPosts. All 13 field names come from a real production run, so what you see here is what lands in your dataset.
