Update: Now we have few more nice torrent search engines. At the end of this post!
There are many sites which host torrent on Internet but most of them are spam sites or porn sites. So finding a torrent is hard and Google is not just enough to do this job. So here comes the list of search engines specially meant for searching torrents! At the end I will be sharing a trick to use Google for searching torrents!
Torrentz: This is my favorite. Simple and fast. Key feature is same torrent from different sources is not duplicated while showing results. So you get comprehensive search results. After selecting a torrent from results you can see user comments, various trackers, mirror links, related torrents & most important authenticity of that torrent.
It also have a dedicated movies & TV shows section. All torrent in these sections are verified. Additionally you can limit your searches to these sections. There is RSS feed option for these sections sections as well as for all search queries. So feed addicts will find torrentz most interesting!
ScrapeTorent: This also search across various torrent indexes. Key features are option to limit searches to particular category, option to filter dead-torrents & duplicates from results. They also have a forum if you need help. I come to know about this recently via Anil, a geek & fellow blogger.
PizzaTorrent: I use this when torrentz fails. It shows real-time results from 15 best torrent hosts. It doesn’t club similar torrents in a single group so you may notice much higher number of results. But it does grouping by categories which saves you from downloading wrong torrent! However it produces too many useless results for multiword queries.
YouTorrent: It also shows real-time torrent results. By default it gathers results from 10 different torrent hosts. You can add/remove various torrent hosts for fine grained results. in left sidebar it shows related searches as well as top searches. This also produces few extra result which user may find useless. I think by default it looks search keywords in torrent description. This may be useful sometime but most of the time user is interested in torrent names only to get accurate search results.
PinkTorrent: NOTE: This is for adults only. So skip this if you are minor according to laws in your county.
This is best for searching free porn torrents. I do not have more details about this but its best according to many reliable sources. Use at your own risk! Only thing about safety I can say never share your personal information with porn sites specially your credit card info!
Google: Yep Google can be used smartly to search anything on the Web! Just add filetype:torrent as it is to your search query and you will get results restricted to torrents. I use this only when all above fails. Unfortunately due to high amount of spam in torrent world you will be disappointed most of the times!

There are many torrent search engines on net so it may happen I am missing your favorite one. Anyway let us know which one you like?
Update: Following is list of torrent search engine picked up from comments below…
BTJunkie – They have database of 1.5 million torrents which they claimed to be largest. Better search options and ability to browse torrent is plus point. [Added by Juan's comment]
Toorgle – Power of Google Search used across 250+ torrent websites. Have index of more than 7 million torrents. A nice example of Googles custom search! 
[Added by Chris's comment]
Torrent-Finder – Optionwise this beats all other torrent search site. Really huge database, with fine-grain control over what you want to include in search! Results can be browse in tabs. [Added by Jack's comment]

I would suggest http://www.multitorrent.org
a very nice meta search engine
@Rocki
Its nice but I see it least inefficient.
It doesn’t combine results from other sites instead you have to check them one by one.
Anyway its different so some people may like it…
i use to love torrentz.com but believe me i have seen a huge difference in torrentz site 15 days ago it was working very fine butt believe me now it wont they have corrupted there data you have to search the exect wording to get acual file even if you add coma aur full stop etc it will not reflect unless you short it up to one to two word so recently i am working on picktorrent and btjunkie
Well i guess mininova.org is the best !! u get good seeded torrents from there, it never disappointed me, anywayz ‘l give a try to these !!
@Sooraj
Mininova is my favorite too but I personally use torrentz as it covers mininova as well as other reliable sources. Moreover it always show mininova at top in the results.
Mininova sucks now… They changed religion or something… I used to love them but they’re beat now.
how to down load full version adobe 3.o audition!?
You can download it direct for 4shared.com
Enter the words: Adobe 3.0 audition in the 4shared search window
And you ll get ample results
Choose to download the one which suits your need and appeals to your mind!
Thanks for the list. I like Rahul use torrentz.com.
Ryan
Your welcome buddy!
Torrentz is really great… Pleased to know that you like it too!
I also use torrentz.com to find torrents !! If this fails I try searching via google.
Dont forget the all so useful thepiratebay.org
@CabooseEnfield
Thanks for reminding buddy but most of above 5 already check thepiratebay and other top sites while searching torrents.
So for example when you go to torrentz your search result will include mininova + piratebay + results from many other top torrent hosts…

@Paul

Thanks for your list anyways !
@shrung

isohunt.com
HEY GUYS IF ANYBODY HAS INVITATION FOR DESITORRENT …PLZ INVITE ME ON abhishagg@gmail.com……i can give demonoid invite in return…

@Prasad
Nice one…
But torrentz and many other includes all torrents from isohunt in their index so haven’t mentioned it!
@Abhishk
Sorry bro. I do not have desitorrent invitation.
Also I purposely omitted all invite only torrent sites.
Mininova and Torrentz are excellent sites to search for torrents, but i usually get too many useless results.
I also use http://flixi.org is clean and easy to use.
i need invitation 2 dctorrent can ny 1 can snd it 2 me @ arpit.maheswari123@gmail.com
@Don –
Even I am looking for 1
deepakjain.hacker@gmail.com
@moviefan
I tried it and it seems very slow. Also interface is not impressive.
Great post. Most of them I already use. I too if all else fails find google to be great if you know what sites to filter out. One note on torrent finder is that it consumes a heavy amount of browser power because it loads all the tabs at once instead of when clicked on. At first it was very convenient but not worth the bog if your on a machine with limited resources. Anyone got some suggestions for private sites? I spend most of my time at Demonoid and LOVE it, but would like to join a couple more. My ratio is always at least 2.5 or higher. Any invites would be greatly appreciated. A site that was dedicated to movie pre releases like TS’s would kick ars. And finally is Oink still around? I guess I can check myself.
Hello there ,, Just a kind request,, if anyone of you can send me an invitation for desitorrent i would really appreciate that. my email address is xcelent_jatt@yahoo.com.
thank you in advance
@preet kaler -

hi frnds,If you desitorrents invitation.Plz send me
@ Pradeep : I think your comment is absolutely off topic. And also DT (DesiTorrents) has stopped invite system about a year ago. No one, including senior members and moderators are having any invites.
Still you can contact them to avail paid registration. Check out their rates at DT Invites.
Founded what I was finding.. place to find torrents
oh great tips and suggestions. torrentz.com
nice post
but the prob. is how to make the seeders seed..
@Ab
There is no way to make or force seeders seed!
So I always make sure I download only torrents which have atleast 5 seeders.
can any one send me a dctorrent invite
my id is jai_virgo1986@yahoo.com
Well I’ve been using Utorrent portal for sometime…And it is “Find it all” as some might say…so check out this site….Utorrentportal.org!!!!!!!Viva la vida torrent head hunters……
well you should try go-torrent.com , reliable , has everything , perfect minimal design , search only by movies, books, games, anime, porn …everything…has this soooo coool “let me google that for you” for searching subtitles , go-torrent toolbar that is like most helpful you can download torrents directly from your browser …and so on and on i could go for ages …really my top of the topest ones go-torrent.com
Hi
check this out http://www.torrentsrsq.com, this one has great search and lots of links, being updated every hour. I used it lot of times. Have fun folks.
Guys , which torrent search engine is the best for finding software torrents according to you?
And btw I use http://www.torrentreactor.net/ sometimes
liked very much of http://www.witorrent.com gives your alot options to download with a incredible “RECURSIVE” / “BY TITLE” search, very nice, the best for me!
looks not more RSS FEED agreggator, get looooots torrents sites.. best i see ever..
http://www.go-torrent.com once again , to make sure that you have all trackers there are you have a tracker list that you can import in your utorrent hehe
i am really astonished with this site ,…did you see it? you like it?
Hi Just a kind request if anyone of you can send me an invitation for desitorrent my email address is
bharath.bad@gmail.com
helllo, can anyone send me an invitation for desitorrent.email id is ramaraju2_2003@yahoo.co.in
Rahul Bansal:
LazyPirate.net mayby wasnt up to your “mark” when you wrote that, and the design wasnt good back then. But I think you kinda missed the whole purpose of the site when you checked it. Anyway now LazyPirate is different and perhaps “up to the mark”? If not I would be glad to hear why you think its not.
MININOVA.org is dead now….
……
i am using http://www.kickasstorrents.com & http://www.bitsnoop.com
check it out..they are great.
plz tell me the site where there are most no. of seeders and they would be connected to super seeding
I use torrentz and mininova. Thanks for few more!
I think that bes of thos torren..is scrap torrent never faild
Great stuff.
Keep your great work going.
Thanks for the info.
I like this new site TorrentRoot.com
I can set my favorite search engines, search them all at the same time, compare seeds, and find the fastest downloads. Its great!
torrent-finder always the best
rarbg.com is also a very good site missing from the list
rarbg.com is listed in torrentz.com
Pizzatorrent is dead, has been for a while. Best engine is torrentscan.com if you ask me
The golden age of torrents is all gone..
Mininova closed Piratebay threatened and Demonoid down almost for half of the year
My favorite website is http://www.sumotorrent.com, it’s fast and reliable, established since 2007 and still growing.
Thanks for this list Rahul. I’d like to add my fave http://www.SUMOTorrent.com too. They got the latest torrents from the best sites and you can upload your own too
Here’s a new one that looks good too http://www.HotNe.ws
i am a demonoid user since more than 4 years now..
one thing i have found out is the number of trackers attached to a torrent..
if you are talking about speedy downloads of torrents.. you should also mention the number of trackers coz it will give consistency any a higher speed rate if any particular torrent site is busy or down..
i have used TorrentsLibrary or TorrentsWave as the easiest
you should also the process of adding tracker to your download file and finding them over othr torrent site
http://www.btscene.com its a great torrent site with a lot of features.
http://www.realtorrents.co.cc better than many other torrent search websites
thanks for sahring the useful information…..thanx
I use rarbg.com . it is a good site and it pops up a picture when you touch the tag line. So you know what you are looking at
I use torrentscan.com.
It includes most of le sites mentionned here.
Best new site i have found for searching torrents and it searches them all. http://www.megatorretz.com
torrentz.com is too good
….
but its been blocked by my college wifi recently
thepiratebay.com is the best………….and torrentz is supercool………..and for those who want hindi movies from desitorrentz.com,search XRG on torrentz.com all the latest movies will be there………….:D

[...] 5 Best Torrent Search Engines [...]
isohunt and torrentz are the best.
i find http://www.block22.co.uk pretty useful
http://www.torrentdaddy.com is pretty good. Advanced Meta search engine.
THIS TORREN ARE THE BEST TORRENT ILIKE THIS I HOPE U R REALY CHEAK THIS
doesnt seem like PinkTorrent is around anymore.
No one comes even close to Torrentz.
http://www.thegreekz.net , new torrent search engine!
I must say that I love torrentz.com. If you want your results to be relevant you should consider writing up your own search queries and saving them: ie (movies rip -camrip -tsrip -ppvrip) will only bring bluray and dvd rips. (-) works as a variable removal (just like in google) – only thing that it’s missing now is an option to eliminate older dates. Does anyone know how to do that?
Yes, I am replying to myself, in case somebody is looking for what I was looking. You can condition the search with dates on torrentz.eu by adding “added: Xd” where X is the number of days. So for example query string: “added: 4d movies 2011 -camrip -cam -ts -tsrip -telesync -ppv -ppvrip -tsrip -series -docu” would search for all 2011 movies added in the past 4 days that aren’t cam or telesync or pay-per-view or series and documentaries. Way to be number one torrentz.eu
The “filetype:torrent” thing doesn’t work.
I suggest using this search engine instead: http://tsearch.co.cc
hey. I think torrentflux is pretty great. I didn’t read the whole forum, so it’s probably already been mentioned.
I love http://torrents.to with a bunch of relevant sites to search through. Also it has an up to date directory of private and public tracker…
Can anyone recommend a link for pdf torrents? I’m trying to find a college book. It’s for ultrasound by Frederic w. kremkau.
I just trust thepiratebay.org
The site btjunkie.org is already closed.

I’d like to recommend https://bitzone.eu – it’s a search engine for torrent files in the various torrage like caches and it’s pretty powerful. Indexing more than 10 Milions torrents, it’s probably one of the biggests search engine. I use it when I’m looking for something really obscure that I can’t find on the bay, and so far I love it.
