AvistaZ

Introduction

Today, we’re reviewing one of the popular donation-based private torrent sites called AvistaZ.

What is AvistaZ?

AvistaZ formerly known as AsiaTorrents is one of the most popular Asian trackers revered for its free indie content. On this platform, you’ll find plenty of free Asian indie content including free indie movies and TV series from countries such as Japan, Korea, China, Philippines, and Thailand. Apart from free indie movies and TV shows, users can also expect free indie music and other free indie content. Unlike many other popular torrent sites, AvistaZ doesn’t feature XXX content, however, you will manage to find certain erotica movies on the platform.

One of the most fascinating aspects of AvistaZ is that its interface is in English. Thus, regardless of which country you browse the website from, you’ll be able to understand the free indie content on it. Mind you, an interface in English doesn’t mean that its free indie content would be in the same language. As mentioned earlier, the majority of the free indie content in the library comes from Asian countries.

Is AvistaZ safe?

For a torrent site to be safe for browsing, it needs to have an SSL certificate, which AvistaZ does have. By using tools such as SEOQuake and MOZ, you can easily check the credibility of a website by gauging Domain Score (DS) and Trust Score (TS). Based on my research, AvistaZ has a domain score of 13 and a trust score of 34 which is quite respectable. Sure, it’s not uncommon for torrent sites to have a DS less than 15 and a TS less than 40. But given that AvistaZ is just 4 years old and already has a DS above 10, everything looks promising moving forward.

What should you expect from AvistaZ?

Bonus Points – AvistaZ has a generous bonus point system. It’s just the acceptance that is the most challenging part. Once you’re in the community, you’ll be able to win bonus points off of simple tasks such as interacting on forums, seeding a torrent, participating in polls, and uploading a torrent. An invite to this platform costs 10,000 bonus points. However, thanks to the reasonable mods, signups are opened for normal users from time to time.

In-depth Stats – You know you can trust a site when each stat is made publicly available. Everything related to the torrent site is displayed under the Statistics section. Using this section, you’ll find out about the number of users from a particular country, most seeded content, content with most peers, trending content, and so on. The last time I checked this site, Korea had the most number of users with 21,247 and it was closely followed by Japan at 16,121. These two countries make up 40% of AvistaZ users.

Torrent Uploads – Once you become a member of the community, you can upload any torrent within the guidelines of the community. Before doing so, you are required to read the Uploading rules regarding torrents. When uploading a torrent, it’s quintessential that you follow the rules, or else the entry might be dismissed and the whole effort can go in vain. As for the uploading process, you have a dedicated page with a form, wherein, you have to fill in all the details once you have added the torrent file from your local directory.

Donation Packages – Similar to other top private torrent trackers, AvistaZ too works on Donation packages. There are five-packages that you can choose from. Each of these packs comes with varied ‘Credits’, ‘Invites’, ‘Bonus Points’, and ‘Duration’. For instance, an entry-level 1 Month VIP membership costs $10 which offers 29GB Upload Credit, 1 Invites, and 200 Bonus Points. On the contrary, the Lifetime VIP pack costs $200 and it offers 3TB Upload Credit, 5 Invites, and 10,000 Bonus Points.

AvistaZ Rules

There are rules for everything on a private tracker. From general rules and guidelines to the forum and uploading, you need to comply with the orders set by the mods. While you can go and read the specific rules on the website itself, I’m going to share some general rules so you have a fair idea about what not to do on this platform.

– Disruptive behavior is not acceptable anywhere on the website. Any serious case can lead to an immediate ban

– You can only have one account per lifetime

– Cheaters will be banned without notice

– Moderators and Admins have the final say. Do not cross-question their judgment

Design

AvistaZ has a super clean interface thanks to its contemporary theme. It looks quite similar to the modern streaming sites because of the color combination and usage of thumbnails. Most private torrent trackers are bland and are filled with just texts. Luckily, that’s not the case with AvistaZ.

Header – In the header section, you can find various options such as ‘Home’, ‘Browse’, ‘Torrents’, ‘Subtitles’, ‘Add’, ‘Forums’, ‘Rules & Guides’, ‘Donate’, and ‘Free Upload Credits’. Towards the right you have two options ‘Messages’, and ‘User Panel’.

Inner Pages – If you click on any category on the homepage, you’ll be directed to a colorful inner page filled with thumbnails. I love this page because not only is it vibrant but it also has various sorting options. You can choose between options such as ‘Seeds’, ‘Leeches’, ‘Total Torrents’, ‘Total Downloads’, ‘Release Date’, ‘Added Date’, and ‘IMDb Rating’. It’s just as you expect on a streaming site.

Content – AvistaZ has a massive free indie content library.

Desktop/Mobile experience

AvistaZ offers a commendable browsing experience both on mobile and desktop devices. It has more than 172,385 seeders and 181,349 peers as opposed to 8,964. This shows that the platform does maintain an astounding seed-to-leech ratio. Due to the high standards set by the community, users can benefit from quality torrents. Thus, they can download content with excellent speed.

Suggestions I have for AvistaZ

Even though the platform has set stringent rules, there are bad apples within the community. And it’s the result of such members that the overall torrent quality on the site may not be up to the mark mainly because only the popular free indie content is seeded well.

Conclusion

AvistaZ with over 100,000 members is a strong community that attracts plenty of users from Asia. Though this tracker is invite-only, watch this space because memberships and sign-ups are opened every now and then.
