The site used 'loops' that were similar to Facebook groups that gave teens a place to interact.[1] They were small communities created around interests in categories such as video and photo sharing, writing, video games, etc. Each individual user also had an individual page that they could customize with text or images.
Everloop was made so that preteens had a place to experience social media before moving on to sites like Facebook that were not meant for younger children and could often be dangerous to them.[2]
