    Torrent tracker and torrent search engine owners - how you monetize your traffic?

    I have started a torrent tracker and can't find a good way of converting my visitors to cash, can you suggest some? Thank You

    Keeping it clean? Good luck... PPC the living crap out of it. Going dirty, fake software downloads, toolbar installs, game downloads packaged with fake movies, reg to get keys, your normal mix of crummy should cover it.

        Get people to register and collect emails.... other than that you'll be ad supported unless you seed the search yourself.

          A good way to HELP make money with a torrent is to create your own browser tracker/search toolbar, maybe with others in it too, that is clean. But... has ad's in it and other searches that pay per search.

          At least that way, your following the people around rather than waiting for them to come back to you. And you could adjust ads, based on what they're looking at.

              You would probably have to work deals with the torrent trackers themselves. I've never seen an aff program for one, but then again I haven't really looked.

                  Np...

                  Torrents around here is a bad word. I would guess, very few here have ever tried to make money with a torrent site/tracker before. But you never know...

                    Since torrents are just people ripping people off, i suggest you create a company in a weird off country, and then do toolbar and botnet installs, key log peoples information and use their credit cards to buy porn memberships from whatever programs pay the fastest using whatever hidden payment methods you can find. if you are doing to deal with shit, go all the way, no half measures.

                      I came here to ask for clean solutions, why you try to send me to the wrong way?

                        Most torrents I see upselling to UseNext. Maybe join their affiliate program?
