Here's how someone else said it:
I'm building a product that allows user to tweet a link along with the hashtag. But when a tweet is posted that also contains a URL , I find that it is missing from the twitter Search, and the hashtag feed, and appears in both as soon as remove the link.
And someone else:
What I ever I tweet with hashtag, it shows in the stream.
For example:
If I tweeted the following,
unable to see my tweeted link in #mrk634 really frustrated me..
it will show in the MRK634 stream.
However, if I tweeted with a link, such as:
#MRK634 Check out my new post in responding to SEO & Social media topics!! http://ow.ly/gYoSJ
I can’t find my tweets within the stream.
And one last one:
Could it be that Twitter now semi-censors tweets? In other words, does Twitter now use some algorithm to determine how well liked a tweeter is, and then based on that, Twitter decides whether or not to allow that person’s tweets to be displayed in the hasthtag streams/timelines to which they have been — hopefully — directed by the tweeter?
I suspect that you just aren't seeing it, because the #kindle hashtag is so heavily used.
No, even in the mega-slow streams my tweets with shortened urls for my books don't show.
How are you determining, EXACTLY, please, that it's not displaying in any searches for #kindle?
I tweet it. Then I put #kindle in the search box and hit the magnifying glass. The #kindle stream comes up. I click on "all."
Also, how are you placing that shortened link IN the tweet?
My message/ the shortened url link/ the hashtag (without the slashes of course)
eg.
Buy my book.

What service are you using?
I used mostly Twitter. I have used Tweetdeck, Hootsuite, and Buffer. For urls I've used the automatic converters of all of them, and I've at times used the ones I converted on bitly or tiny url.
Thanks for trying to help, Hitch.
