We shipped a ton of product this month. Here’s the recap:

Explore

We added a second tab to the app called Explore. Here you’ll find some of the coolest sites made on Universe. When you find a site you like, follow it. You’ll get a push notification when it’s updated.

Explore is our first foray into showcasing what people make on Universe. We’re going to explore this direction a lot further, so stay tuned.

Instabuilder

A Universe site is the perfect “link in bio” for your Instagram profile. So we made it even easier to create a site for Instagrammers: just enter your handle and we’ll do the rest. You’ll get to choose from our beautiful filters and then customize your site as much as you like.

Track Views

We added a way to see how many views your site gets. To get started, subscribe for $2.99 per month (with a 7-day free trial) and you’ll immediately see how your site is performing. Jump between months and drag your finger over the graph to see daily data.

Coins

We built a referral engine to reward customers who help us grow. With Universe Coins, you can get free subscriptions for domains, tracking views, and whitelabeling. To earn coins, just share Universe with your friends using your custom referral link.

We have even more exciting stuff lined up for February. Stay tuned!
