Tips to get a better upload ratio

<< < (3/8) > >>

Bozobub:
"Forced" seeding can often be very useful, compared to simply increasing the number of possible active torrents.  I use forced seeding for stuff I want seed forever, and a simple "seed to 1:1 ratio" setting in my torrent client for all other torrents.  Forced seeds also show up nicely when you are sorting your torrents.

A seedbox is a remote computer that you run a torrent client on. The advantage is they usually have much higher upload (and download) speeds than most people's home Internet connection. Allowing you to upload much faster and improve your ratio. You still have the problem of getting good torrents for seeding. Just because you can upload at 20MB/sec from your seedbox doesn't mean you'll get that from every torrent.

A seedbox is a service you have to pay for. They range anywhere from $15US to $50US or more depending on the storage and bandwidth alloted. Most accept credit cards or PayPal or some other online payment.

thanks for info Philistine 8)

Need a torrent experts opinion on "number of connections global/per torrent" how it can effect upload ratio? and how many connection an internet connection can handle?

Freedom Kira:
It's dependent on your service. Opening up too many connections can cause other things using the network to lag. It can also cause your system to lag. Play with it until it clearly doesn't cause issues, then drop it by 25-50 or so for some leeway. You usually shouldn't exceed 500 global unless your connection is ridiculous.

If a large portion of your torrents never see any activity, you might want to try increasing the number. If a few torrents seem to eat up all your connections, drop the max connections per torrent to force connections to be distributed more evenly.
