What Active Management Produces
An international peacebuilding NGO: 1,093 mission-aligned engagements per quarter at $11.45 each — across 10 campaigns in 6 languages.
That’s supporters reached. Volunteers engaged. Program participants recruited. Not bounce sessions from readers who wanted something interesting to read.
The Content Traffic Problem
Organizations that publish articles and essays attract general readers through their content vocabulary.
These users consume grant credit without mission alignment. We apply phrase-level exclusions for generic reading-intent searches — redirecting budget from content tourists to mission-aligned searchers.
Language Is Never a Reason to Exclude
For global organizations, foreign-language mission searches represent real audiences.
Spanish, French, Arabic, Chinese — every search is reviewed individually. If the intent matches the mission, the search stays. We never exclude a language because a manager can’t read it.
Peer Organization Searches: Keep Them
Users searching for peer organizations — the US Institute of Peace, Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders — are already mission-aligned. They’re the best cold audience available. We keep them.
Compliance Maintained
Ad Grants requires a 5% CTR, valid conversion tracking, and specific account structure requirements. Active management ensures ongoing compliance while maximizing the grant’s impact.
