Users: Why use Torrent Scan ?

Easy and so much quicker

Can't find the torrent you want on a torrent site? Switch to a different torrent site... with just one click.

Torrent Scan allows you to search the best torrent search engines from one convenient torrent portal. No more hassle finding your way onto a particular torrent site. Whether you want to access torrent search results and download torrents, or simply view the latest torrent additions on a torrent site, Torrent Scan will take you there -- one click and you're browsing a different search engine. Can it get any easier than that?

Your personal Torrent Scan

The TorrentScan torrent search engine searcher can be completely customized to your likings. Torrent Scan comes loaded with the best torrent sites ready for you to scan, and you can reorder your list of torrent search engines in whatever order you want. This feature is available to you through live, real-time editing: just click and drag a torrent search engine site up or down your list of torrent search engines and drop it where you want it. Your reordered list of torrent search engines is automatically saved by your browser, so next time you visit the torrent search engine searcher the list will automatically switch to the order you chose before.

Don't like the default Torrent Scan theme? No problem, simply switch to a different theme using your control panel. You can choose over 20 different and unique Torrent Scan themes. Each theme features its own color scheme and style images, but at the same time, each theme keeps true to the default Torrent Scan theme. Hence, scanning with a different theme is as easy as with the default theme.

If you would like more space to view the search results you can choose to change the actual orientation or layout of the engine list. You can align the searcher left of the search results, or across the top of your screen. However, you can also choose to quickly hide and show the searcher temporarily using the show/hide button.

Any and all of these personal settings are saved in a browser cookie, so that next time you visit Torrent Scan, your preferences are automatically loaded and applied again.

Add and remove engines

One of the most advanced features Torrent Scan has is the ability to add and remove engines to your engine list. There are dozens of extra torrent engines which are not automatically loaded, but which you can add to your personal list. If you really don't like an engine, you can even remove engines from your list.

Filter search results by category

Torrent Scan supports filtering the search engine results by category. You can load a category-specific search directly without having to access the actual torrent site search options. This will save time for you, time you can use to find the torrent you need.

Torrent Scan respects your privacy

Torrent Scan servers do not record anything about you, not even non-personally and non-identifiable information! Nothing, zero, zilch, nada! Torrent Scan servers are not even capable of recording such information because there are too many of you and there's too much torrent scanning going on. So just keep it coming!


Webmasters: Why endorse Torrent Scan ?

Torrent Scan could be another torrent search site that indexes the same torrents like so many other great torrent search sites already do. Instead, Torrent Scan was the first torrent site that chose not to maintain its own database of torrents. Instead users can search their favorite torrent sites using the search functions provided by your search site.

Torrent Scan decentralizes the BitTorrent search world, offering much more reliable search functionality to users than any individual search site can. As a completely legal site, Torrent Scan can always continue to offer BitTorrent searching to users, even if individual search sites disappear.

There are three major advantages for torrent site admins: First, the resources of your torrent site are not wasted by an automated bot that grabs torrent files from your servers.

Second, your torrent site does not suffer a loss of advertising income. Advertising revenue is the most important factor in the continued existence of torrent sites, and only Torrent Scan offers a mutually beneficial and sustainable solution. All other torrent search sites link directly to torrent files or copy them, hence completely robbing your site of its advertising income. A few sites tend to link to the torrent download pages, but this still reduces your ad exposure immensely, plus such visitors exhibit much lower than normal click-through rates. With Torrent Scan, a user browses through every page they would normally browse through. Your ad exposure and ad income is completely unaffected.

Last but not least, let's not forget that Torrent Scan is also a good source of new visitors for your torrent site. The best quality torrent sites from the list will naturally receive the most traffic; so you could say Torrent Scan actively and directly stimulates you to do better!
