How can my business advertise on Ecosia?

Ecosia has around 8 million users and almost 1 million followers on Facebook. Two thirds of them are located in either France or Germany. People between 20 and 30 years of age living in larger cities are overrepresented groups. And we have slightly more female users than male ones. What all of them share is their interest for environmental topics.

If your target customers fits into that bucket – how can you reach them online?

Now, navigate to your Campaign settings. Open up “Exclusions” under “Advanced Settings”. Paste your list of URLs into that box and save.
