Type One:
- Improvements aim to make the site as efficient as possible so users will have to spend as little time as they have to on the site, all the while trying to provide the best speeds and the content that the user is expecting
-run like a business and decisions are normally made based on practicality, and how they will bring the site to their end goal (activity/money/whatever).
-tracker is central, a community may build itself around the tracker, or may not.
examples: Whatcd, HDBits, FTN, BCG, TorrentBytes, (most 0days), the list goes on..
Type Two:
- Improvements aim to coax the user into spending as much time as possible on the site, all the while trying to provide the best speeds and the content the user is expecting
-hobby sites that are run based on emotion and unrealistic ideals; decisions are made without a clear connection to the endgame plan.
- community is normally centric and stressed
examples: PTN, CE, probably a ton of trackers that have long since closed their doors due to lack of donations or some form of drama.
