Introduction
Large torrent websites have many wonderful features that make them the most sought after option for sourcing torrent on the internet. However, large torrent websites are known for their involvement with their members that maintains the constant communication which is needed for growth. One such incredible website is Linkomanija.
What is Linkomanija?
Linkomanija is one of the biggest general trackers in Lithuania. The website has a huge free indie torrent database that consists of several categories. It is a members-only website and to get access to the website, you need to get an invite from the existing members of the website. It has a ratio system that is not hard to maintain; you can choose manual seeding or a seedbox. Linkomanija can be accessed from any country in the world.
Is Linkomanija safe?
For a torrent site to be safe for browsing, it needs to have an SSL certificate, which LinkoManija 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, LinkoManija has a domain score of 15 and a trust score of 32 which is far better than most sites from the same niche. Sure, it’s not uncommon for torrent sites to have a DS less than 20 and a TS less than 40. But given that Linkomanija has been around since 2003, it would have been great if the site had a DS higher than 20-25 at least.
What should you expect from Linkomanija?
Linkomanija has a sufficient amount of torrents that could last more than a year even if you tried downloading a dozen torrents every single day. However, the website has many more benefits and perks to offer. Here are some of them.
Contests – The website hosts contests periodically for its members and the rewards are incredible. Any member irrespective of rank can participate in these contests. The results are announced on a set day and the members are expected to submit their entries within the stipulated time. The prizes of the contest include lifetime VIP profile, invites, excessive upload limit, and more. Winners are announced on the homepage of the website.
User Class – Linkomanija has a user class system like most of the torrent websites. These ranks are given to the users considering their contribution to the website. The user class hierarchy of the website is as follows ‘Newbie’, ‘Member’, ‘LM Amateur’, ‘LM Fan’, ‘LM Patriot’, ‘LM Veteran’, ‘LM Elite’, ‘VIP’, ‘Uploader’, ‘Forum Moderator’, ‘Moderator’, and ‘Administrator’. Each user class comes with special benefits and powers that they are entitled to when using the website.
Forum – If there is anything more interesting than torrents on Linkomanija, it is the forum. As mentioned above, the website has active members who are eager to participate in any activity that takes place on the website. The forums are one of the liveliest parts of Linkomanija as numerous members from around the world participate in several conversations on the website. As a member of the community, you can post in the forums too. You can share your opinion on different topics or provide a solution to any member facing a problem when using the website.
Donation – Linkomanija does not have any ads on the website and they do not have any infomercial placed on the website. It completely relies on donations to function and luckily they have generous members who donate from time to time. In exchange for monetary support, the website provides special benefits to the donors. The donation amount starts from EUR4 which can get you 3 months of VIP subscription and 1 torrent invite.
Since we have been talking about VIP privileges for too long, it is time you knew about privileges offered to the VIP members. Some of the best VIP privileges include protection from bad rating, ability to mark 1000 torrents, view NFO files, and the ability to choose a custom title.
Linkomanija in numbers
Linkomanija was launched in the year 2008 and it has been growing at an exponential pace ever since. The website has a huge torrent database with tons of free indie torrents. It has a large community of more than 301,310 users from different countries.
As per the Alexa rankings, Linkomanija is ranked #48,652 which makes it amongst the top 50,000 websites on the internet. It attracts more than 200,000 visits a month and an average visit on the site lasts for more than 2 minutes. An average user visits 2 pages before bouncing off the website. In terms of engagement, Linkomanija is not the best as I’ve reviewed numerous torrent trackers that are almost 10x better in regards to engagement. Nonetheless, I’m happy that it does manage to retain the users for a longer period and prevents them from bouncing off immediately. With a 28.5% bounce rate, Linkomanija certainly does have commendable retention.
How to access Linkomanija?
You can access Linkomanija by searching for the term ‘Linkomanija.net’ in your search engine. Alternatively, if you want to access the platform directly, you can use the following link: Linkomanija.
Design
Linkomanija is designed like a standard torrent website and has a very minimal look. The website has a plain white background with text, images, links, search bars, checkboxes, buttons, and tables. These elements combined offer navigational ease and convenience to the user.
Header – To help the members of the website get to the different pages, Linkomanija has included a header section on the website. This section is neatly designed with links and buttons placed in a sophisticated manner. It consists of options like ‘News’, ‘Torrents’, ‘Profile’, ‘Forum’,’’Rules’, ‘FAQs’, ‘Contact us’, ‘Zone 5’, and ‘Tags’.
Inner Pages – The inner pages are not very different from one another. Apart from the homepage which has a lot of images and text, the other pages of the website are just tables, texts, checkboxes, search bars. For instance, the website’s browse torrent page comes with a category filter with the necessary checkboxes and the table comprises information like ‘Type’, ‘Name’, ‘Files’, ‘Comment’. ‘Added date’, ‘Size’, ‘Finished’, ‘Seeders’, and ‘Leechers’.
Free Indie Content – The website has an free indie content library which is spread across several categories. It has an exclusive Zone 5, where torrent files can be downloaded without having any impact on the ratio. However, this page is only accessible to the members with VIP privileges and special ranks.
Desktop/Mobile experience
The website offers unmatched convenience with its desktop layout that seems to have been designed after considering all the important factors required for a user-friendly website layout. All elements and functionalities can be accessed and used easily, even with a basic internet connection. However, you might need a steady internet connection when downloading or seeding free indie content from the website.
Having said that, Linkomanija, similar to other torrent sites, is not mobile responsive. To use the website on mobile, users have to open the desktop version and zoom in and out to select an option.
Suggestions I have for Linkomanija
Freeleech content is like a breathing space for downloaders looking to download free indie content without worrying about seeding repercussions. However, Linkomanija lacks freeleech content, and that is unsettling as it is one of the oldest, biggest, and sought after websites. The website must use the periodic or the alternate day method to upload freeleech content on the website.
Linkomanija also needs to have a mobile version of the website that can be used for downloading too. The website can introduce a lite version of the website that uses less internet and use the internet to download the torrent.
Conclusion
Overall Linkomanija is an incredible website that can be used to source torrents for different types of content. However, there are some problems that you need to find a way around until the sysops fixes them.
