Ello is a community to discover, discuss, publish, share and promote the things you are passionate about. Ello is a networked marketplace and publishing platform for the world's creators to share & sell their work, build audience, visibility and opportunities, and get hired and collaborate.

Ello was originally created in 2014 as an alternative to Facebook – the creators wanted to create a social networking site that was free of ads. However, as the site grew, it turned more into a Pinterest-like site, where users could share photos and other creative work.

Ello is a simple, beautiful, ad-free social network created by a small group of artists and designers.

Over time, so many people wanted to join Ello that they built a public version of Ello for everyone to use.

Joining the platform is easy. Simply sign up with your name and email address, and you’re good to go.

When you join, you’re asked a series of questions that are used to customize your feed.

Zero ads and zero privacy threats.

You can collaborate with, work with, or even hire other creators.

Ello is an alternative to Pinterest for creators and artists.

Ello is rather simple to use. The Discover page makes it easy to find what you are looking for.

Ello also lets you post adult content, but you will have to mark it appropriately, so people can choose to have those kinds of posts hidden from their discovery results.

There’s a ton of surprising, raw, unique creations from people all over the world.
