I consider my site still to be extremely new at a young age of 1 year and 8 months. The reality of it is that it is still new for a .com
I have been clicking on a lot of the sigs at this site and have been noticing that all the fucking domains have expired or not responding.
So how long do you think the average warez "webmaster" last?

I would say an average 3 months and a 6 month run is rare.

I'm sure there is only a handful of us that have had a warez forum over a year.

When i develop a .com im in for the long run. I have every .com that i have ever registered and the ages go from 8 months to 15 years old.

crazy-coderz.net lasted 9 years, recently resurrected it & re-directed the domain to Dexozoft but that is the longest living forum that i know of

Must be using some fucked up twisted math
Still an old domain tho
 
You have to remember how warez has changed. Now it's a lot easier to set up a site.

Let's look at how you create a site in 2011
Buy a domain, buy cheap hosting, download ipb/vb/phpbb/wordpress, upload to your server, click install and enter username and password, install theme, create sections, run sharpleech or similar content generator, submit do DDL Sites.

Time Required 45 minutes, total spend about $15 if you know what your at

As it's so easy, quick and cheap to create a site now it's easy to dispose of them after 2-3 months. Five years ago when their was a huge amount more work involved in setting up a site they lasted a lot lot longer as you only really started one if you were serious.


Kids now with a few minutes to spare have to decide will they make another warez site or watch some porn and have a wank both choices are that quick and accessible.
 
I'd say, in 2012, the average age of a warez website will be around ~15 minutes.

No, this is not off the top of my head. It's the result of a sophisticated series of calculations involving advanced, technical, and further mathematics. And of course, I took a course on Sarcasm 101 that greatly helped me draw an appropriate and a largely accurate result (~15 minutes).

</sarcasm>


Seriously though, the general trend in the warez scene is the rise in the number of warez blogs/forums that are put online everyday; of course there's an equal rise (probably greater) in the number of sites that close down too. Put quite simply - there's more of quantity, less of quality.

How about ~15 minutes now, I already have my dedicated box for hosting, buy domain, create account, goto cPanel account, find: Softaculous, 'Auto Install' WordPress or something similar, login add 'RSS Feeds' from another Warez Blog add all the content then enable your 'Ad Revenue' or money making ways; and then start posting on some forums.

That's basically how easy it already is; for anyone to make a warez blog; Even without have a dedicated box, just find instant activation, How the Softaculous WHMCS Auto Installer Plugin; that shows WordPress?

I've actually had a warez site; The same thing with different variations of the domain;

www.venom-owns.net
www.venomowns.net
www.v3nom.net

Pretty big at time, it was using PHP-Nuke with the phpBB forums, it ran for few years, until I realized all this manually posting was a pain (No Multi Posters that I knew of at the time)

Then had a torrent site (btzone.org) ran really well, but wasn't making any money any more; so I closed, still own the domain though.

Yes very true happy, sites have become disposable due to the cheapness and quickness.

Most warez sites and blogs here last 1-2 months if that and then disapper becuase the owners loose interest becuase it is ridiculous easy and cheap to setup.

My main site has been up since 2nd December 2006, it was hard back then, uploading it all manually from my crappy 1mbps contenction.. hours and hours months and months worth of work, and now people use automated stuff which requests about 1hr to setup and then it does the rest.. its so much easier now, which means people who are not comited give up which results in a high turnover of sites.

The fact its so easy is also why there is such a high turn over of hosting "companies" and so many scam hosts becuase Any kid with $32 can start one.....

Basic Costs of for example Snowflakes Hosts:
Domain: $8
Reseller: $8
WHMCS: $16
Total Month 1: $32
Total Month 2: $24 (if its even around for a second month)

Then all you need to do is upload it all, start selling hosting, This is representative of the hosting "companies" ran by children, which disapear after a month or two and pocket anything over their $32 or $56 investment depending on if they are around for 1 or 2 months..

Obviously Serious Hosting "companys" or any host in it for the long hall have real expenses in the region of either hundreds or thousands which is why they have to charge more, they have real expenses to pay unlike the child hosts who are in it to make money then disapear, they will say what ever they need and then disapear...

These Child hosts also give the hosting industry a bad name...
