    These sites include:
    http://proxysensation.com
    http://wasblocked.com
    http://hidetrace.net
    http://yxorp.us

    Type: Auction
    Start: Now
    End: 72 hours from now or at BIN
    Starting bid: $200
    Bid increments: $10
    BIN: $1400 (accepting offers)
    Reserve is set.

    Accepted methods of payment (in order of preference):
    - Escrow.com (buyer pays fees)
    - Google Checkout
    - PayPal

    The domains themselves are very valuable. The traffic that comes with it is very good. The sites are getting MOST of their traffic from direct requests (return visitors!) but a good amount still from other sites (mainly proxy lists) and several search engine hits (thanks mainly to the reverse spelling of proxy, yxorp.us).

    Since the server has only been running well for September (and the last few days of August), I have only the past couple weeks of stats available. The traffic has declined the past couple days since I've been testing blocking some Asian IPs to save bandwidth on the server.

    And no, I don't have any ad revenue. My account got improperly banned from AdSense for invalid activity on another site 2 years ago and I'm in the process of getting it turned around. Not only this, but the traffic has only been this good for about 3 weeks and I wasn't really expecting it, since I've never advertised it or anything.

    The stats can be found here: http://proxysensation.com/usage/usage_200709.html

    I'm very excited about selling these sites and I'll be glad to answer any questions you have.

    Happy bidding!

    The bandwidth they are using can be found in the Webalizer stats. The average comes out to be about 25-30gb a day. Remember we're talking up to 33,000 visitors in a single day though! Bandwidth has been down since I've implemented the method of blocking most asian traffic - which you can obviously choose to keep or not (I'll show you how).

    I released ProxySensation.com in the beginning of May, but only to friends of mine for our own use. The sites have really only been set up for 2 months or so, and even then were on a crappy shared server.

    BIN dropped to $800. It will go back if the auction ends without a sale.

    There's an hour left on the auction. I'm currently accepting BIN offers in the $500-600 price range.

    Alright, in a must sell mode now.

    No auction, just looking for a BIN buyer.

    $400

    This website has SO much potential and I'm sad to have to drop the price so much.

    Is no one interested in a site with all this traffic? The bandwidth has been tamed well since I blocked suspicious IPs.

    webalizer does not properly count unique visitors on proxies. your daily traffic is most likely a couple of hundred daily uniques IMO best case.


    you'd be #1 on the toplist you have a button for if you were really getting that kind of traffic.

    Looks legit.

    well DP is a place that most sites are sold on earnings in place. maybe try putting up adbrite and adversal to come up with some #s?

    obviously the sites have value...but any site getting 3000 or 33000 daily uniques to its main pages should be generating major $. remember webalizer records hotlinking vistors as visits even if they never actually go to the site...

    maybe put extreme tracker or google analytics on the index pages to analyze the traffic.

    I've got AWStats compiled to generate all of that stats from the entire network in that file, so that's all of them.

    Are you working on these sites, or doing additional development? The reason I ask is because each of these websites are not responding to HTTP requests. Kind of interested, but I'd like to see what the sites look like.
