Correct me if I wrong (I've been wrong before) lol But all the proxy list sites, top sites etc. out there seem to expose proxy url's in plain old html. All the proxy list sites seem to just use a html select box. Wouldn't it be better to adopt a "show to people / hide from bots" approach Using ajax or flash? Just a thought.
i think u gotta figure out a way to reduce the number of servers that u are running! and hire someone to optimise ur sites and server so that u get the maximum bang for the buck!
My servers are already optimized well for proxies Just that I have a few very high traffic sites that are not proxies on my servers too so can't just reduce them. Also I have a proxy hosting company coming right up almost ready to be launched, will announce it once its officially open
Sumitted, thank you. My traffic and earnings have gone done by 75% I've packed up proxys for the summer and going to start a few more once School starts!
Hey guys since our earnings are decreasing we should start advertising our proxies more so that we rank higher in SE's. To do that I launched a new proxy topsites for you, you can submit your myspace proxies here: http://myspaceproxies.in/ I will advertise the page in the coming week and it will be a PR2 next update. SPECIAL: To get this going I will send out a proxy newsletter to approximately 200 users including your proxy if you submit a proxy this week! Also I will randomly create banners for proxies that impress me: e.g. a simple banner like:
Get Chance Send Your Site to 1000+ Members Who Looking For It. That sentence makes no sense. Are you trying to say, "Send 1000+ members to your site"?
If you rely on UK traffic summer has pretty much already started. It's half term at the moment, exams (so people will be on exam leave) and some people have already finished for the summer.
What kinds of numbers are you putting out? From what countries in your analytics? I personally haven't seen a drop yet. Though my site is over a year old so I don't imagine I get much if any traffic from schools
Well its the average traffic I get in a day Currently 2153 impressions in adsense Most of my traffic is from the USA and yea, my site is nearly 1 month 10 days old
Today I received some traffic back on a few of my proxies. Mainly US based traffic from schools. Anyway only 1/10 of my proxy earnings come from Adsense, just too lazy to change the template and the users got too used to the ads that they dont click anymore. Adsense was making $75+ daily on them initially when users were still fresh on the template. So as a general tip to all proxy webmasters, change your templates frequently to get constant high CTR! Dont be a lazy bump like me
How would changing templates help? Change the site up on the users so they're not used to the ads anymore? No sarcasm there, I'm genuinely curious.
Ya thats what I figure, once they know how to use the site they become very adblind. I don't think changing the template would do anything though. I bought a paid link on proxy.org about 3 weeks ago, and found I'm getting clicks barely. Those users know that their ads and ignore them.
That's right, it can be changing of Ad positions, colors etc. Example; changing a white template with blue link ads to a black background template with white links and a black URL proxy bar which makes it camouflaged, that would bring an instant jack up to 25% CTR
