What types of reach are there within komoot?

Our extensive network of 45 million registered users harbors enormous potential for outdoor content marketing. However, it’s important to recognize that not all reach is created equal.

Generate your own reach with your partner profile

By creating a partner profile, you gain access to the komoot ecosystem. Once activated, your profile becomes visible on our platform, opening up a world of partner opportunities for you to explore and leverage.

Boost organic reach through outdoor content

As the owner of a partner profile, you can create tours and collections tailored to your region and have them featured on the local “discover” feed. This empowers you to generate organic reach – without the need for any additional advertising budget.

Unlock paid reach with Sponsored Collections

To increase the visibility of your outdoor content on komoot, you have the option to promote your content directly to your desired target audience through Sponsored Collections. Speaking of target audiences: in a survey conducted during last year’s End-of-Year Webinar, some participants mentioned that reaching the right audience can be challenging. If you want to promote your region or specific routes to outdoor enthusiasts, a Sponsored Collection on komoot is highly effective. Our community consists exclusively of outdoor lovers, ensuring minimal wasted reach and maximum impact.

The native campaign format appeals to users during their inspiration phase and seamlessly blends in – without being perceived as traditional advertising. Our survey reinforces the effectiveness of this approach among our partners: Four out of five partners who have used this advertising format recommend it to others.

Would you like to reach a new audience beyond your national borders? That’s just as easy on komoot. Check out our magazine article on “International Campaigns” to learn more about the process and see successful projects.

By the way: At komoot, we offer real-time reporting that encompasses all relevant campaign metrics. These key metrics include organic and paid reach, the geographical locations of clicking users, as well as daily updated data on completed activities and collections.

Good news: You’re just three steps away from your very first Sponsored Collection. Let us walk you through the process!
