I find most proxies just die and don't make anything. I have to keep advertising and promoting it to keep the traffic level sustained. Last month I spent $150 on advertising
$1-10/day. Just depends, and it fluctuates often. I also never pay for advertising. Dunno why some of these guys are forking out money for advertising
same here.. never found a good paid advertisement whcih can cover its own costs. somehow always had a bad experience with paid ads.
we will see what will be during the summer ... but untill then ... i will repeat myself , can you ( anyone ) login to google groups ?
My worst one does under $1 a day, with the best ones around $10-20 per day. That's a combination of adsense and adbrite.
i can't login to my own group and i can't see any of the groups selected, in other words i can't login to Google groups
adsense is down for me which *MAY*be related people dont freak out if you dont think it is, dont even reply if you dont think it is
Does anyone buy backlinks from proxy topsites? Such sites usually have at least a hundred outgoing links..
We have recently made massive changes behind the scenes to The Tech FAQ Proxy Site's List. These changes have been focused on improving the quality of the listings. We are now successfully preventing duplicate submissions. People were being very creative in finding ways to submit the same proxy over and over again. We also now have a blacklist for referer spammers. Those proxies who spam us to get their proxies on the "Popular Proxies" page will now find themselves permanently blacklisted. The end result, for proxy owners, is that a listing on our proxy list will now bring you a lot more traffic -- because you aren't sharing the listings with repetitive cheaters. We've also culled a huge number of existing duplicates from the listing. We expect to complete that process next week. This weekend we will also begin the process of removing proxies which do not respond to our backlink check. That should improve the quality of the database for our visitors while also reducing the competition for legitimate proxy promoters. We're still #1 in Google for the search term "Proxy Sites", and we're still just behind proxy.org and Wikipedia for the search term "Proxy." And, of course, proxy listings in our DB are still free.
Glad to hear Will, Those listings were getting pretty spammy recently. I know proxy.org has some pretty strict guidlines on submissions. Such as no subdomains and the site must be top level domain.
