How to Make a Torrent

I'd like to point out the things you must consider beforehand:

Things to consider before making a torrent

• Before you make a torrent, it would be wise to pick a site and review its policies and rules, which can be found in their FAQ section.
• Your site of choice may have restrictions about content; some do not allow porn, some specialize in specific type of content (such as music, or anime).
• Your site of choice may also have some specific requirements about content and demand that you add some extras to your torrent such as signature files and ads.
• Some public sites require registration for uploading; all private sites do.
• It is important to consider the size of your content for two reasons: first, not everyone has sufficient disk space for very large torrents; and second, larger torrents require longer seeding times. In such cases consider making multiple torrents based on some practical partition such as years, season, parts.
• Before making your torrent, select your content's location carefully as it will have to remain there (during initial seeding at least).
• The files in your content must not be modified after you have made the torrent, as this would cause corruption in the torrent.
• Make sure the files are not in use while you make the torrent.
• There is no need to compress multiple files into one archive. Many torrenters find it annoying. It also requires twice the space: once for the original and once for the archive.
• You may wish to make a torrent for exclusive distribution among friends and family. In such case, you may choose to distribute your torrent in some other manner.
