At the beginning of 2017 the torrent landscape looks quite different from a year ago. Update: List of top is now out. With the shutdown of KickassTorrents and Torrentz.eu, two of the largest players in the scene disappeared. However, their places were quickly filled by established sites and a few new faces. The Pirate Bay is in the lead once again, closely followed by ExtraTorrent and RARBG, which gained many new visitors in recent months. Must read: The unofficial Torrentz reincarnation Torrentz2.eu is the highest newcomer in fifth place. This meta-search engine copied the look and feel of the defunct meta-search engine and covers dozens of extra sites compared to its predecessor.

TorrentProject is also doing well. The site has been around for quite a few years already but never made it into the top ten before.

Torrent Search. Torrents.me combines popular torrent sites and specialized private trackers in a torrent multisearch. Beside The Pirate Bay, Kickass Torrents and ExtraTorrent you can easily add your favorite torrent sites.

Finally, and also deserve a mention. Both have enough traffic to warrant a listing, but we chose to limit the list to sites that are targeted at mainstream content for an English or international audience. Below is the full list of the ten most-visited torrent sites at the start of the new year. The list is based on various traffic reports and we display the Alexa rank for each. In addition, we include last year’s ranking.

Most Popular Torrent Sites 1. The Pirate Bay is the “king of torrents” once again and also the oldest site in this list. The past year has been relatively quiet for the notorious torrent site, which is currently operating from its original.org domain name.

Back in the days, when torrents used to be the next big thing, new sites were “popping up” on every corner, offering more privacy, faster download speeds, and a wider range of available torrents. The situation is a bit different today. Even though we still have numerous torrent sites on the Internet, there is a relatively small group of websites that stand out and provide the best service. Torrenting in 2019 is all about reliability and privacy. In this article, we’ll take a look at the greatest websites and let you decide which ones suit you best.

Our list of the best torrent websites – 21 in total – was compiled based on the Alexa ratings, customer reviews, and our own experiences. While the most popular torrenting sites are equally great for downloading movies, TV shows, books, video games, and everything else in between, most torrent websites are usually good for one of two categories of content, and we’ll make sure to point that out in these reviews. Along with the not-so-accurate Alexa ratings, it’s also important to check the number of daily/monthly visitors.

That will help you create a more accurate picture in your head. Alright, without further ado, let us take a look at the best websites for torrenting. One last thing: to keep your privacy in 2019, use a solid VPN.

The Pirate Bay is the best pick from this point of view. On average, +/-50 million users visit it monthly! It is equally good for shows, movies, games, software, books, and more. It has been around for decades and is currently the obvious leader.

Despite the long list of restrictions for users from many countries and the legal charges that the owners had to face, PB is still the king. The range of available torrents is very impressive, and for most people, The Pirate Bay is more than enough to cover their torrenting needs. After the officials brought the website with the original domain down, PB fell off the list of the “hottest” torrent sites. However, it didn’t take it a long time to climb back to the top. The incredibly friendly and simple interface, the impressive collection of links, and the tolerable ads contribute to its popularity. #2 – RarBG – The Most Popular Site For Movies This is another big name among torrent sites.
