    Does any one have suggestions on how to build a torrent site. Where do you host the movies. Can you host movies and music... on your own computer? Is there free hosting, good quallity, on the net? Is It illegal to do this?

    Alot of questions needing some answers. Please Help.:)

    I have a site that gets lots of traffic from people wanting to download axxo movies but when they get to my site there are none. I know that google will punish me if I put torrents on my site but its what people want. I am confused. I get none to very little clicks worth anything from adsense. Seens how thew closest thing they got to axxo is p2p or filesharing.

    You can not host movies on your server even to download, this is why they came out with torrents. You can have movies on your home computer all you need to do is make a torrent for them and then make sure you seed it. Then you will have to just offer all of the torrents out to people. If you were to put movies on a server and offer them for people to download you will surely get in loads of trouble and possibly face charges.

    Sounds like it would be a lot of hassel. Not to mention the legal complications. I think I will cancel that idea. Thanks for the input.

    You want to make a torrent site?

    What you need

    - Offshore hosting (where they allow torrent linking)
    - Script
    - of course the uploaders

    Now the question is what script you want, the answer is whichever is easy for you.

    Gazelle
    TBDev Source
    Torrent Strike
    Yuna Scatari
    phpMy BitTorrent
    Nafania`s SZ Edition
    Free Torrent Source
    Template Shares
    Netvision
    Diferior
    xBTiT
    TorrentTrader
    TorrentPier
    Fearless

    BTW what kind of torrent site are you making? Because I am also making one.

    I own the domain evilTorrent.com and I have been wanting to build a torrent site BUT, I don't want to host the files I want it to be more of an indexer/search engine for torrents. My problem is that I can't find a decent script to accomplish this anywhere that is reasonably priced. Does anyone know of any indexer type scripts? I would really like to put this site together one of these days.

    I know there are some different scripts here on DP currently. Has anyone had any experience with them or know if one is better then the other? Also looking for ideas on the look and feel of the site. I don't want it to have a huge search bar taking up half the screen. Looking for ideas that are slick and clean looking with room for ads and such.

    So how would one go about finding up-loaders?
    And what do mean by "Offshore hosting"?
    Would you kindly elaborate that for me?

    Finding uploaders i think you get by joining private trackers and making friends and starting a site with them and "offshore hosting" probably meant out of USA hosting maybe like places like netherlands or germany ...just my guess i don't know anything about torrenting..

    OK if you are serious about open a torrent site, here are a few things you need to know ( I used to own one - so yes I know what I am saying )

    1: - You do this - because you like been a part of the torrent community.
    2: - You will not make make money from this - it will cost you. - Breaking this down.

    2a- You will need a server host - to run your site from - approx = $150.00 USD per month.

    2b - You will need at least 2 seeder boxes - ( for your uploaders to use - to get fast downloads for your members ) - approx = $150.00 each.

    NOTE - only allow people you trust to have access to the seeder box - as anything that goes wrong - comes back to you - it's in your name.


    OK That's the costing side ( but can go higher - Just an example )

    But lets get back to the start.

    1: - You need a source code to run your tacker.

    There are a few out there.
    But they are all based of the same original
    source code
    {
    Gazelle
    TBDev Source
    Torrent Strike
    Yuna Scatari
    phpMy BitTorrent
    Nafania`s SZ Edition
    Free Torrent Source
    Template Shares
    Netvision
    Diferior
    xBTiT
    TorrentTrader
    TorrentPier
    Fearless
    }

    So you really have to look at the support that each code has to offer.
    Once you decide upon a source code to use.
    What backup support - does there forum offer you.

    You will be new at asking questions.
    Will staff or members there - make you feel stupid - if you ask - a hard question for help - according to your little knowledge.

    That will be how you feel.

    Do not feel that way.
    Source code forums - will help you in anyway they can.
    But read before you ask questions.
    That way you - you don't look stupid - asking a question - that has been asked 1000 times before.

    End Of The Day

    If you really want to have a go.

    Then do so.

    You have nothing to lose.

    I made no money from my time doing this.

    But I had an awesome time -

    Meeting new people - members.
    Talking to them - I installed a shoutbox on my site.
    Been a member of the sharing community ( not just torrents - we had a lot to say in the forums )

    Legal Stuff.
    As long as you don't have the files on the server - you are not breaking the law.
    Except - if you are making shit loads of money, from the site.
    Even if this money comes from legal sources - example - advertising.

    The MPAA - do not like it.

    Anyway - Time for me to go and do other stuff.
    I have given you a bit of reading.
    Please ask questions - if you wish to know more.

    Happy Torrentting.

    NB.

    Best open source code - is anything - TBDev - based. ( but be careful - if you get charged money for your source code - you are been ripped off )

    Welll, maybe just run away to a country as Brazil, where they even sell on every street corner illegal dvd's, take internet on someone else his name, and then start your own direct download / share torrent site, with possibilities to download the newest illegal copies, euhm.... lol

    anyway serious now, coming to making a torrent, and sharing this with others....
    Is it just: making a torrent with a software as Bitcomet, uploading that file to a server / site, making a "download this torrent here" link on that site, connected to that uploaded file, and that file is connected to the movie you are sharing and seeding? (Unfortunately) it is going about a legal movie, we made, kind of amputee documentary. Thanks all of you!
