History

The site was launched on 30 July 2006 when it was visited by only 23 people. The site's slogan was "The Bulgarian videosharing website". In March 2008 Vbox7 was visited by 200,000 people and there were more than 9,000 registered visitors. On 6 February 2012 the mobile version of the site was launched. Two years later, a mobile app for Android and iOS was created.

In early June 2014. the site launched a partnership program because user-generated content was not seen as profitable anymore. Vbox7 started to transition to self-produced content and partners network. In 2015, famous Bulgarian vloggers (Emil Konrad and Boryana Stefanova for example) migrated to Youtube. Videos of users that don't have a contract with Vbox7 were made inaccessible to watch from outside Bulgaria. A lot of previously uploaded videos were deleted. Vbox7 changed its design to a more mobile-friendly one, merging the mobile and desktop versions. The transition was considered complete by the end of 2016.
