FB doesnt show trending hashtags publicly anymore best way is watching viral pages in your niche and checking what tags they repeat Third party sites track trends but accuracy varies

There are many useful tools you can refer to such as Google Trends, Exploding Topics, BuzzSumo and Feedly. Among them, Google Trends stands out the most thanks to its ability to provide information on search volume fluctuations in real time. Exploding Topics is a great choice to detect emerging trends before they are widely popular.

There are no official tools that show specific trending topics in FB Groups or Pages. But for content, tools like Google Trends, Exploding Topics, and social media listening sites in general can help you figure out what's gaining traction.

It depends on what exactly you want to track. Facebook doesn’t have a public “trending hashtags” section like Instagram or TikTok, so the best you can do is monitor what people in your niche are talking about.

The fastest way is to type the hashtag directly into the search bar and check how many recent posts appear. If the frequency is high, it’s likely trending.

I don't think so. The best way is to monitor the Reels section and use the search bar on Facebook to see which keywords and hashtags are being searched and used frequently lately.

I think you could try searching #viral; it will show trending topics and users on Facebook.
As for websites that accurately update those things, I don't think they have that because everything changes, I think it's on a daily basis.

You need to use your intuition to identify trending hashtags; there's no other way to search for them.

I some times use FB ads library
Drill down to my niche and search for those ads
They would usually have some clues too

Specialized social media data analysis tools remain a very powerful source of information:
BuzzSumo: Helps you find the most engaged content on Facebook by keyword, and then extracts the accompanying hashtags.
Hashtagify or RiteTag: These tools allow you to check the popularity of hashtags in real time and suggest the hottest ones.

Use Facebook Search (Fast & Free)
This is the simplest way.
How:
- Go to Facebook search
- Type #keyword (example: #fitness, #marketing, #spa)
- Facebook will show:
- Recent posts using that hashtag
- Popular public posts
- Groups & Pages using it
How to judge “trending”:
- Many posts in the last 24–72 hours
- High engagement (likes, comments, shares)
- Used by big pages or active communities
This shows real-time activity, not old data.

I completely agree with using Google Trends and checking out popular pages and groups in your niche to stay on top of trending topics. Another approach I've found helpful is setting up keyword alerts on tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush to get notifications when certain topics are gaining traction. This can help you stay ahead of the curve and create content that resonates with your audience. Does anyone have experience with using AI tools like ChatGPT to generate content ideas based on trending topics, and if so, what's been your success rate?

I think Facebook doesn't have this feature yet. You can search for hashtags using the Facebook search bar.
