Searching for torrents can be a little tricky, after all Google wasn’t made as a torrent search engine. This is where torrent search engines comes handy, which makes finding simple and easy.
We decided to compile a list of Top 5 new torrent search engines, its the beginning of September 2008 we bring you some new players in this field (except Torrentz which is 5 years old). The list includes only public websites, which allows you to search for torrents without registration or ratio requirements.
Note: These search engines do not host the torrents on their servers.
Usniff
Usniff is a new real-time search engine that lets you search on 8 different torrent websites (The Pirate Bay, mininova, etc.) simultaneously. Its features include searching for torrents on 8 popular torrent sites simultaneously, filter search results by keyword, size, seeds, peers, and source. Adding Usniff torrent search in Firefox search bar makes searching more easy.
NowTorrents
NowTorrents is a great torrent search engine that only shows real-time search results unlike some other sites. It has great, clear, and easy to read layout, fast results and support for Firefox and IE-7 plugins. NowTorrents makes torrent findable and is extremely easy finding the right torrents. Another neat feature is that NowTorrents is able to detect and remove fake/dead torrents.
PizzaTorrent
Pizzatorrent is a name to be remembered. Other than that it’s got features similar to YouTorrent. There’s the standard search bar in which you type your query. Results are ordered by type, i.e. movies, music, TV shows, and other. The top ranked torrents are displayed at the top of the list. Information includes date, size, seeds, peers, and the engine from which they’ve been pulled. PizzaTorrent scans Mininova, PirateBay, Vuze, SumoTorrent, IsoHunt and NewTorrents among others.
YouTorrent
If you appreciate the ease of use and quick facility of search engines you’ll love YouTorrent. It is the first legal torrent search-engine. Typing in a keyword will pull date, size, seeds, peers and engine for each torrent, results can be ordered according to your preferences. YouTorrent grabs only legal torrents from Mininova, The Pirate Bay, SumoTorrent, Monova, and Vuze among others. New features are coming up, these include Boolean searches, advanced search, more engine selections, and a Firefox plugin.
Torrentz
Torrentz.com is similar to any other torrent search engine that does not actually store torrents but give you a radical search by its indexing servers. The function of this search engine that stands out from the rest is that it not only search torrents but also it searches within every torrent for possible matches. And the indexed torrents are only those that have atlease 1 active seed which makes it one of the most reliable search engines for finding active torrents. (This site is 5 years old through)
Start searching now, you will find almost everything on the internet using these search engines. If you think we missed any new search engine, let us know in the comments.

Dont forget the all so useful thepiratebay.org
September 3rd, 2008 at 2:59 pm
Read the heading again, it is about new search engine websites, not old ones. thepiratebay.org is one of the first torrent search engine, so everyone knows about it.
The sites listed above are those which are new and majority of the people don’t already know.
