Is it all actually too good to be true like everyone says?
If you think it is a good cause why not click on the ad if the ad is what you were looking for anyway? Is the best way to support a good cause and good people.ĭo #g Google searches even work with Ecosia scheme and don't break Google's terms of use? It's no secret, it is public available information. Since Ecosia is a social Business 80% of the profit after tax goes into sustainable tree planting projects. The business model of a search engine is to show also advertisements based on the search terms and hope the user click's on it. The purpose is to deliver search results. Wouldn't using Ecosia as a regular search engine without committing to clicking the ads defy the purpose of it, as you generate cost to them but they earn no money from you?
It is a lot information because Ecosia is a social business that works as transparent as possible. Take your time read what information Ecosia provides. This is how advertisement in the internet works in general. Is it true Ecosia generates no revenue from regular traffic and displaying ads to you and they only make money when you actually click on the ads?
Ecosia stellen how to#
If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix these problems I wan't to hear em', perhaps the errors are on my side, what do I know? Thanks for reading, as I said I like the idea of Ecosia and I didn't write this post to insult and hate on someone, I'd just like to see Ecosia improve, because I don't want to try to use it, I just want to use it. New tab doesn't have the 'trees planted' counter unlike the (I guess) main page, why not put a teeni-tiny version of the counter somewhere in the corner? I like that there is an addon extension that makes Ecosia dark mode, but I hate the blue coloring, what about making the whole thing customizable or adding some premade schemes? Incognito mode, all settings for Ecosia are reset in Incognito mode, Ecosia is a browser extension, so I disable it for Incognito mode in settings, it's still in Incognito mode.īecause of all those reasons I found myself frequently switching to Google inconveniencing myself, so I decided to just always use Google instead, I understand that majority of these reasons may not be Ecosia's fault reather Bing's but I just can't get over it, If you know how to fix any of these please tell me, as I said I am on board with what Ecosia is doing, I just can't use it for these reasonsĪnd now some suggestions (which aren't reasons I don't use Ecosia but I might as well put em' here too): Lack of "Shop" (might actually be called slightly differently idk) button, a button which Google has and I use quite frequently, Ecosia has option to look on Amazon and other sites, but that is useless when I want to search for a specific item in local eShopsįricking porn, safe search options 'moderate' and 'strict' seem to do the exact same thing of filtering out some stuff that is not unsafe and the stuff I am looking for, so ok disable safe search, now everytime I search for something most of the results are porn, WTF
Language: 'Search region' and 'Website language' don't seem to work properly, I live in Czechia and I've set them to 'czech', and many times when searching for something I get websites from english speaking countries and even spanish wikipedia articles over the czech ones, which is absolutely ridiculous imo Last but not least, we decided to keep our season’s greetings virtual this year.Firstly I need to say: I am very much on board with what Ecosia is trying to do and this post is more of a 'pls fix' rather than trying to hate on someone, I really like the idea of helping the environment by just using the internet but there are a couple of things I just can't get over and are the reason I am not using Ecosia anymore. We are looking forward to the next exciting sustainable steps in 2022: A carbon footprint analysis for WAVELABS as well as job bikes and job tickets as a benefit for our employees. Switching to eco-friendly transport modes for business trips, reducing trash and implementing Ecosia as default search engine are just a few examples. It was amazing to see how many great ideas we collected. Besides many exciting projects and developments, we decided to put a higher focus on a topic, which matters most to us: Sustainability!Īll WAVELABS members were invited to help to make our company, our processes and our daily work more sustainable. 2021 has been another exciting year for WAVELABS.
