These days, setting up a private BitTorrent website is almost as easy as setting up a blog. Simply grab a domain name, purchase some hosting (that supports torrenting), and install yourself a script such as TBDev, TBSource, or even Gazelle. Tweak it up a little, add some custom images, and voilà - an instant torrent site. It’s done all the time. But to launch a successful private tracker, there’s more to it than that. No, we’re not talking about badgering members into donating to keep it running - you need an angle that the real pros are using. This includes the entire A-to-Z gamut of IRC services such as PreBots, PreNET and IRCd - not to mention total anonymity with offshore bank accounts & offshore hosting.
It’s not often that true sceners will divulge the secrets for developing a private tracker and turn it into something really special - and even profitable. This is "in-the-know" knowledge that takes years of internal scene experience to hone - rarely is it information easily parted with. For the first time ever (that we’ve ever seen), we’ve found a select group of sceners who are more than willing to help the aspiring private tracker owner achieve the ultimate BitTorrent site.
