In this article i’ve shared with you some of the best Bittorrent Tracker Scripts in PHP and my experience with each of them in very short so that it helps you in starting your own Torrent Site. This article only concerns private torrent tracker scripts and not the scripts which indexes torrents such as mininova. My highest advice will be if you are starting something with some fresh ideas and and confidence in the venture i recommend spending money and creating your own tracker from ground using something like opentracker which piratebay uses.

Xbtit

Xbtit is developed by Btiteam. It is released under Free BSD license. It is a highly recommended tracker and can certainly be regarded as one of the best available tracker. It even has option of integrating xbtt C++ tracker which is highly efficient. It uses SMF as its forum and the project is actively supported by a large group on members. Its definately the best choice if you want the best free tracker.

Torrent Strike

It is one of the modded version of original TBDev Script. Torrent Strike has many flavors such as officially supported Nzb, Fullymodded etc, or even some unofficial ones. The script is lightweight good for a starting new site which doesn’t want many hassels. I really don’t like the admin panel and settings are pretty odd. Its recommended to those who want to run a very simple lightweight script.

Summary

There is no summary to this i can’t pin point and say that “this script is for you”, its better you try the script yourselves and check which suits your needs and also your knowledge and you are better off to go with that. But as for general conclusion, i think you should obviously try Xbtit. and if you have money to spare you can go for Templateshares, though i dont think you should opt for that considering its encoded and you can’t suit your needs, but its all about your wishes, maybe you’ll find templateshares better than others. The other script mentiones are also worth trying and lastly it all depends on your needs and your pocket (not only on script but also on the server). There are many other script i haven’t included practically because either they are still in Beta or are ols and are not being developed. Some of them are Yana Scaturi, Gazelle, YAFTC etc.

What you can do next is visit BVList, and check out all options throughly and get recommendations from other users using such scripts.

5. Submit it to as many torrent sites as you can

This is where the process can get tedious. Up until now, your computer has done most of the work for you. You only had to give it a file, and while you were gone it was downloading it for you. Now is the time where the real work comes in. Granted, this entire process up until this point has only taken about 5 minutes of REAL work, and it gets faster as you go along, but now is where you may put in the hours.

It’s extremely easy to earn money off of torrents. I know of several people who have made over $1000 in one day from this method. So here’s the missing step you need to get a piece of the pie.

You are create your torrent file and submit it to as many torrent sites as possible. To create the torrent file, open up uTorrent, and click the little button that looks like a magic wand.

Find the non-passworded .RAR archive from Step 4 and plug that in. Then, under trackers, place these two lines:

http://tpb.tracker.thepiratebay.org:80/announce
udp://tpb.tracker.thepiratebay.org:80/announce

Be sure that Start seeding is checked, and leave everything else alone. Click “Create and save as…” and you are good to go. Save this new .torrent file somewhere you will remember.

Now you have to upload THIS .torrent file to torrent websites to earn money. You will be Earning money by the end of the day, if not within the hour. The most popular torrent sites will get your torrent out there faster. It is usually good to seed for a full day, until you have about 20 or so seeds or more. So to get people to download and eventually seed your torrent, let’s submit it to these popular torrent sites.

When you submit a torrent, look for a link that says “Upload Torrent” or something similar, and click it. Fill in the forms (titles, descriptions, genres, etc) and be sure you load the .torrent file you made with uTorrent not the .RAR archive!

There are thousands of popular torrent sites out there, but a few of the ones I use are:

BiteNova
BTJunkie
BTMon
ExtraTorrent
MegaNova
MiniNova
MonoNova
NewTorrents
SmaragdTorrent
ThePirateBay
TorrentPortal
TorrentReactor
TorrentValley
WorldNova

Simply put, the more you submit to, the more money you will earn. It’s just a matter of persistence. If you don’t want to do this stuff by hand, there is an alternative. You can purchase Torrent-Blaster for just $67 and upload to as many torrent sites as you wish, using an almost completely automated interface.

It’s not mandatory, of course, but it will certainly earn the process MUCH faster, and in the game of torrents, the faster you can get your files out, the faster you will earn money.

To purchase Torrent-Blaster, please visit www.Torrent-Blaster.com

6. Seed and repeat!

7. Earn Money BY GIVING THIS REPORT AWAY IN YOUR TORRENTS!

Here’s the EASIEST MONEY you will ever earn.

Now, here’s your chance to earn $30 dollars for every copy of Torrent-Blaster you sell.

To do this, simply re-brand your copy of of the Free Report entitled “earn money By Seeding Torrents!” with your affiliate link for Torrent-Blaster by using the PDF rebrander tool included in this package. (If you are not an affiliate, go to www.Torrent-Blaster.com and scroll down to the bottom and click the AFFILIATE link in the footer.)

Then, all you have to do is include your new, rebranded PDF file in your torrents! Thousands of hungry readers will learn how to earn money with torrents, and will purchase a copy of Torrent-Blaster through your embedded affiliate link and you will earn a whopping $30!

Imagine how much money you could earn by uploading a popular music album, and getting thousands of downloads? The possibilities are endless! And it won’t cost YOU a dime!

2. Download a torrent client

This is easy as hell. Go to http://www.utorrent.com/ and download it. You can get either the standalone version or the full install one. I use the full install, but it’s up to you. It doesn’t matter either way.

Once you do, it’s on to step 3!

3. Get a password tool

You can either pay for this, or use your newly acquired torrent client get one. I leave this up to you. I use WinRAR, so if you want to follow the screenshots, I suggest you get that. If you choose to download it via torrent, you can find it on ThePirateBay.org, just search for it.

Scroll down for step 4. We are just about done….

4. Download a popular torrent file and set a password on it!

Finding these is not hard either. On ThePirateBay.org they have a Top 100 list of the most popular torrents per category. I also like BTJunkie.com’s homepage, since it lists their most popular ones as well.

A good torrent should have hundreds, if not thousands of seeders (usually indicated in a green font) and even more leechers (indicated by a red font). Seeders are people who have the file already, and are uploading it, and leechers are the people who are downloading it. I’ve seen Anime torrents with over 10,000 seeders and leechers before. So the more popular the better.

Download one of these gems, and when you are finished, we need to modify the file.

Here’s how that works. (see below)

A. Right-click on the file and select “Add to archive…”

B. Change compression method to “Fastest” and check off “Delete files after archiving”. Then click on the Advanced tab and click “Set password…”

C. Create a new folder outside the passworded folder. Now you have a New Folder and a passworded one. Rename the New Folder to look like the passworded one, and then drag the passworded one into it. Also, copy and paste the password here.html file into this folder.

D. Now, do the same procedure for this folder, only this time, DO NOT password protect it. Basically, you have a passworded archive .RAR and an .html file inside a non-passworded archive .RAR file. I think that may be the best way to put it. ?

Last and final step……

Earning money with torrents is ridiculously easy. There are six basic steps you need to follow in order to get this right, and I’ve laid them all out for you clearly below. Get Started Now !!!!

1. Sign up for an affiliate/CPA Network

For this method, you will be downloading popular files, password-protecting them, and then re-uploading the torrents back to the most popular torrent websites. Here’s a breakdown of how you get paid.

A. Target downloads file
B. Target fills out a CPA (cost per action) offer
C. Target gets password and is happy, since now they have access to there files
D. You are happy because you made money off the CPA offer

I’m assuming you already know a bit of the language I’m using here, but just in case this is all sounding like gibberish, basically, in a nutshell, companies will pay you (usually a few dollars) to help them find customers. That is where the CPA offer comes in. The user fills in a few text fields, usually an email address and/or zip code, and then YOU can get paid for referring them. What we are doing is simply forcing people to fill these out, so they can access the files they downloaded from your torrent.

Got it? Good.

So where do we find good affiliate/CPA networks? Easy. Here’s a few to get you started.

RoiRocket
COPEAC
CECash.com (this one makes a lot of money, but if you are unsure about a porn CPA network, then do not apply here.)

Sign up for any one of these, and you are good to go. Some may require that you have a website in order to get an account. Simply create a blog at http://www.blogger.com/ and use that as your website. They should give you an account without any problems. If they do, you can always call customer service and ask what you can do to get an account. I had to do that with RoiRocket, and I was approved over the phone instantly.

Next you will need an offer to promote. The best kinds are the ones that require the LEAST amount of information from the user. Zip code and email submits are usually the best for this. Also, since torrent traffic is USUALLY international, it is much better to find the offers that are international as well, otherwise you won’t get paid. CECash is a great CPA network, since all there offers are international. I’ve made over $250 in one day with ONE TORRENT with this network. I highly recommend them, so long as you don’t mind promoting porn.

Once you’ve found an offer you like, grab it, and get your affiliate link. This is something we have to be very careful with.

Most CPA networks are smart and track where all the traffic comes from so we need to be careful of how we get the users to the network without raising any flags. Also, the fewer barriers between the user and the password, the better. So instead of creating a textfile that says, “Go here [affiliate link] and fill it out. ”, we are going to create a .html file. This is VERY important for two reasons.

1) The user can click the link and be that much closer to the password. No bothersome copying/pasting.
2) It prevents the CPA network from finding out the location of the link. The Referrer tag sent will be blank, and the network won’t know where the lead came from.

So create a .html file and call it “password here.html” or something similar. And put the directions in there. Something along the lines of this will be sufficient, however feel free to play around with wording to find what works best for you.

“Thanks for downloading this torrent! Lately, I’ve had to .RAR all my files for a few reasons.

1) It’s faster to download one BIG file, than a bunch of smaller ones.
2) The password is to keep the other people out of the files, since I share this computer.

You can get the password though by clicking here [affiliate link]. Just plug in your details, and check your email. Once you do, you’ll find a confirmation link. Click that and the password is the 12th word after ‘Thank you!’

Sorry for the little extra work..:-P”

That’s one I used for a little while and it did very well.

The hard part is over. On to step 2.
