Youtorrent is a website that provides a great search interface that provides access to several torrent website databases. The Youtorrent team decided to put the website up for sale though lately in a surprising move. The website which lately received up to 10 Million visitors per month was never monetized before. Still that’s not the only change to Youtorrent that was announced.
The Youtorrent team removed searches for all Torrent websites that would only index legal and free torrents. The move is somewhat surprising because this change will surely reduce the amount of visitors tremendously. Youtorrent currently indexes seven torrent websites including Legaltorrents, Bittorrent and vuze but fails to index the more popular torrent websites like The Pirate Bay.
This might be more appealing to possible buyers but those buyers on the other hand surely notice that traffic will decline with the removal of those torrent websites. Who will buy a website with a uncertain future traffic level ? Alternatives to Youtorrent are PizzatorrentLooktorrent for example.
Know of other websites that could fill the gap ? Let me know about them.

Youtorrent never filled anything, just go to pirates bay and search. (and since it can’t search private torrent sites I’ve no use for it)
great alternatives:
http://scrapetorrent.com/
http://www.torrentz.com/
http://www.nowtorrents.com/
I moved from scrapetorrent to youtorrent becuase youtorrent was so much faster… but without the good sites, youtorrent has now become pretty useless! massive thanks to konstantin for http://www.nowtorrents.com – what a perfect replacement!
some day ago youtorrent was great torrent engine.that has great torrent site like piratebay
isohunt and so on.but today I saw it has no piratebay and isohunt ,sumotorrent link.what happens to this engine.it that space they use vuse
legal torrent like unknown engine so this has now no good link.so i decided to find othe search engines and avoid to use utorrent

It seems that Pizzatorrent has gone offline.
I’d rather say that their servers cannot cope with the traffic increase
