    yes works but the CPU usage is very high for the latest versions of glype , if you have good traffic will crush the server, i don't know why but i had this problem with 0.53 and all beta 6

    I haven't tested this, but it should work ok.
    This will switch templates every four days or so.
    (obviously you need to change template1 etc. to the names of your templates);

    open includes/settings.php

    find "// Site skin"
    on the line after delete "define('siteSKIN','your template');"

    then Add
    
    $day = date(d);
    if ($day > 16) $day -= 16;
    if ($day >= 1 && $day <=4){
    define('siteSKIN','template1');
    }
    else if ($day >=5 && $day <=8){
    define('siteSKIN','template2');
    }
    else if ($day >= 9 && $day <=12){
    define('siteSKIN','template3');
    }
    else{
    define('siteSKIN','default_template');
    }
    
    Code (markup):

    Does anybody have any suggestions on getting more clicks? I change my templates around and that's still nothing.

    Here are my stats since I have started my proxy about 3 weeks ago: 1,449 Page Impressions & only 2 clicks. Is there a problem?

    http://www.unblock4you.org

    Is it the template? Please. I can't stand a 0.14% CTR

    You need learn more about Adsense. Your ads are unrelated. Its been proven targeted traffic + target ads = $ But right now there is not really alot of good ads for proxies.

    I know exactly how adsense works. This is just my first proxy. How do I get targeted adds on a proxy? Should I just add some target keywords in the intro?

    I would use a different template, the one your using has been around for along time and a lot of proxies owners use that one in particular. Basically practicaly every proxy user has seen/ used that template before, my experience has been if the user gets accustom to a template they click less (=less $$$$). Try this template http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=860391, haven't seen many proxies using it so far.

    If you know what sort of traffic you are getting such as their age group, gender, interests you would then be able to know what sort of keywords to place it in. Most of my proxy users are female teens and so I add in a few keywords of jewelery, shopping, dating which attracts them to click on the ads as the ads are more targeted towards their interest. Of cause you cannot change your whole proxy site to target these specific keywords as it is viable for adsense ban. You can try something like Access through this portal to shop online jewelry and clothes :) Think of more such sentences and more appealing ads would appear to your traffic users.

    W00t! I opened a few proxies two days ago and today I made $8.41 in Adsense earnings :) Still waiting for GI to accept me so I can reap the benefits of banner and popunder ads.
