Making a Torrent Tracker

Hello there every one ;)

very sorry if this is in the wrong section , im looking into setting up a Torrent tracker and am a full time noob so i dont know a great deal about it but im in no rush on setting one up
i just want a good hobby

now i do know its a very hard thing to do that does cost a fair bit of money and time ect but if some one could point me in the right direction then that would be great

1 what do i need for a good private site ( i know alot about the scene ect :naughty: )

2 how much does it cost

thanks alot people for your help and for being suce a noob.

I hope someone can help you out with your quest. There are alot of knowledgable people here and i am sure you will soon get the help you desire. :yup:

If what you're looking for is how to set up a tracker, you should check the TBdev forums:
http://www.tbdev.net/index.php
There you'll find plenty of information to get you started.

What you need to have a good private site? I suppose you're hinting at Scene access. Get it, then code your auto-upload script to race stuff. Of course, it sounds very easy when put like that. Perhaps there's more to it, I don't have too much experience with this so I can't help you.

There are plenty of guides, try tbdev, FSF, filenetworks, or maybe you could test out gazelle as well, depending on what you are looking for.

The most significant thing I think is, please don't start another 0day/scene tracker. There are already far too many of them, and unless you have something revolutionary there is a 99% chance it will fail due to lack of activity.

Think about what kind of tracker you want it to be. And if you don't start a 0day/scene tracker, you won't need to pay or find uploaders with "scene access".

setting up a tracker is harder than spelling etc.

You should know or learn how to make a basic database driven website using similar technology to what one of the existing trackers use.

And throw in a bit more knowledge about server administration.

Then go for it...

i'd say don't even bother to create one if you're a "noob", it will inevitably fail.

GL, just don;t give up and all be good. more is better.

always thought tosetup a tracker..thanks for info mate.

Unless you have coder that you trust life will sux for you,
wouldn't even try.

90% of all start ups fail.No need trying.

if every one had a attitude like that then we wouldnt have torrent sites
