Torpedo — Common Questions
Torpedo Traffic Generator (previously called WAT) is a desktop app that helps grow your website’s popularity. It sends traffic to your site from different locations and improves visibility in search results (SERPs) in a short time.
Torpedo is a next-gen traffic tool. We keep researching and updating to maintain traffic quality. Read more in this post: Secrets of Website Traffic Generators: How They Help You?.
Download the free demo from the downloads page. The demo has limited features. To unlock everything, purchase a license key.
Torpedo runs on Windows (from Windows 7 SP1 to Windows 10). If you use Linux or macOS, install Torpedo on a Windows virtual machine.
There are no set limits in either the free or paid versions. You can add any number of websites/pages and set traffic to 100, 1,000, 10,000, or more—based on your settings.
We offer a Demo (free) and a Full (paid) version. Download the demo from the downloads page. If you like it, you can buy the full version. We also offer a 14-day money-back guarantee. See our refund policy.
Buy Torpedo from the purchase page. After payment, your license key and download link are sent to your email. If paying via PayPal, check the email linked to your PayPal account.
We accept major debit/credit cards and BTC/ETH. Payments are processed securely via PayPal, so available methods are those PayPal supports. If you face issues, contact us—we may provide alternatives.
Yes. If Torpedo doesn’t work as described, you get a full refund. Payments go through PayPal, so you’re also protected by PayPal Buyer Protection.
Yes. It’s a lifetime (perpetual) license with a one-time purchase. Your license key never expires. The license includes 1 year of priority support.
Updates for your purchased version are free. From time to time we may release a new major version with extra features. Upgrading to that version may require a small fee. You can buy an upgrade here.
Yes. We can enable your license to work on up to two computers at no extra cost. By default, each license is for a single PC unless specified. Contact support here to enable this, or move your license to a new PC using the license reset portal.
Free proxy IPs are easy to find—search for “proxy IPs” online. Because many free proxies exist, we don’t bundle proxies with Torpedo. You can import proxies from a text file or from websites (see the user guide). If you prefer paid proxies, buy from your chosen provider and use them with Torpedo.
Yes. From Torpedo v8.0 onward, HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, and SOCKS5 proxies are supported—with or without authentication. Versions earlier than v8.0 do not support authenticated proxies.
Torpedo is meant for traffic and SEO, not AdSense manipulation. Like any traffic tool, safety depends on use. We ensure Torpedo doesn’t create malicious traffic, but misuse can still trigger fraud checks—for example, sending 1,000 visits/hour to a site that normally gets 100/hour.

No. Torpedo does not click ads. It may generate ad views (impressions), but it won’t perform ad clicks.
Re-download your purchased version from the download page and activate with your key. If you lost the key, contact us via the contact form.
Torpedo needs Microsoft .NET Framework and the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable. If these weren’t installed via Windows Update, install them from the download page for your OS.
Common error types:
- Error code IAK (Invalid Activation Key) — You’re using a key that doesn’t match your version. Keys start with a number indicating the major version. For example, “8TOT” works only with version 8.x, and “7WAT” works only with version 7.x. If you bought a 7.x key and try to activate 8.x, it won’t work. Download a matching version or purchase an upgrade.
- Error code ECS101 — Client-side error. The key is invalid or the format is wrong. Enter the key exactly as received. Sample format:
- Error code ESS101/ESS102 — Couldn’t connect to the activation server. Check your internet. A proxy or VPN may cause this.
This can happen for some new users (a small percentage). Often a few settings need tuning for your site and network. First, watch this quick video for a basic setup: https://youtu.be/Qxn9Wc0pMwQ. Then try:
- Uncheck “Use proxy” in the “Geo Location” tab.
- Ensure your PC uses a direct internet connection (no system proxy).
- Increase session duration (e.g., 6000 or more), based on your site’s load time.
- Switch the traffic engine in Torpedo Settings.
If traffic appears without proxies but not with proxies, possible reasons:
- Proxies may have died. Always use “Test proxy” and refresh proxies often in the “Geo Location” tab.
- WAF (e.g., Cloudflare) may block proxy IPs. Check via “Adv Proxy Checker” (not available before v8.0).
- Your proxies support only HTTP while your site uses HTTPS (rare).
