Smosh about

A blurb on Smosh.com, as seen in 2018.

Smosh.com is the Smosh database used to sell various types of Smosh-branded merchandise through the Smosh Store. Formerly, people could view all Smosh episodes, exclusive content from videos, and private videos that were never uploaded onto YouTube through this website.

How it was made[]

Most people say that the coding used resembled how Adobe Dreamweaver used to make their website. Anthony made the website so his group of friends could chat on there as back then, there wasn't a really good social media website. Later the website got popular, so Anthony decided to put some ads on the website to make some money.

Beginnings[]

Smosh.com first started on November 10, 2002 as a basic Flash movie and social networking website created by Anthony so that he and his friends could chat as said in an interview with PartnersProject. The selections were in blue ovals. The "Extras" videos section was separated from the normal "Videos" section. The website also included a forum and a store. There were no games at the time, though.

2009-2013[]

The website design changed a lot. It now had its layout to be on cardboard, much like the Shut Up! opening. A "Games" section was also added, the "Extras" section was added in the "Videos" section, and a new feature called Smosh Pit was also added to the website. During this time, both the forum and the store were still active.

2013-2017[]

On January 22 and 23, 2013, around the time of That Damn Movie!, Smosh.com was given a complete website re-design. The URL is still the same (Smosh.com) but the cardboard theme was dropped for a more simple clean layout. A new area self-titled Shut Up! Cartoons and Smosh Games were added to the new website. The forum and store were still part of the website. After a week, they changed the background to the Cardboard layout but everything else stayed. On March 26, this version was restored. In 2015, a Music page was added. A small box was also added where fans could choose to look at, "Music", "Shop" or "App" quickly.

2017-2018[]

In 2018 the website was heavily redesigned. The previous design was scrapped in place for a new, simpler looking website with a plain white background and light blue text. Most sections including Smosh Pit were removed. The website now only contains the sections "Videos", "Articles", "About" and "Store".

Defy Media shutdown[]

On November 6, 2018, after the shutdown of Smosh's parent company Defy Media the website was disabled. Four days later on November 10, the website was reactivated though it was unused until February 19, 2019 when a video titled Something's Coming... was uploaded and the video was embedded on the website. It had a countdown when a particular event, which turned out to be an announcement video that Rhett & Link have bought Smosh as one of their divisions, was activated.

2019[]

On February 23, 2019, the website had a change once again. An embedded video, The rumors are true... has replaced Something's Coming..., the countdown has been replaced by a SmoshCast video and a link to the store for their merchandise dubbed the Smosh Store, a shirt with a phrase "I helped" being shown. Throughout that year, the site had been regularly updated with the latest Smosh videos as well as their other promotions such as Try Not To Laugh Live!. Beginning this year, much of the former content on the website, such as videos, pictures, and articles from the site's nearly-two-decade history, including behind-the-scenes footage, deleted scenes, and bloopers from older Smosh videos became inaccessible, presumably lost as part of Defy Media's former assets.

2020-present[]

In 2020, the Smosh Store was merged into the main Smosh.com website. With this, the site became the store for official merchandise. A link to the website and store of My Favorite Coffee was also included before it was discontinued. The main website has been updated regularly to accommodate new merchandise releases.

On November 3, 2023, coinciding with the limited release of the Food Battle 2023 collection, the website was redesigned.
