    IMO
    if you buy the .info domain for bulk
    you can get it at $2 or less

    Dollar is right, it would be very hard to manage 1000 domains, plus the amount of bandwidth and server resourses you will need to keep these 1000 running would be insane! you will be paying high xxx or even in the xxxx per month!

    Well I suppose then if you wanted to take the business risk and see if it was profitable you could pre-register in bulk a few hundred .info then sell them as unique proxy as $4 each or something. I certainly would not try it though not to say I haven't thought of this before I have.

    I'll let you use of mine unique for $1 per day. How does that sound? :p

    Had a few pretty good days with adsense this week. BTW, are American schools on holiday? I've stopped advertising for the moment because English schools are on holidays so I want to wait until they're back at school before I advertise again.

    My adsense is also pretty good, even if schools in the UK are closed... Yesterday I got 2,16 and now I'm already on 0,17 !

    I thought I would share my recent triumph with you guys as inspiration to some. I hit my first >$20 day today with $22 through adversal and adsense, it feels great. My server costs $4 per day, so this felt great :D. There is good money in proxies

    guruguy, how much of that was through adsense? And how many page impressions do you get a day to reach that much?

    I get around 2,500-3,000 page impressions a day, 75% was adsense, 25% was adversal. I did some optimisation for adsense on the weekend (removing hotlinks, updating content) so it may just have been a fluke day ($16 compared to mondays $7 with lower PI's), but I hope not :D

    I don't like giving out info about my websites, however this thread has helped me a lot, so I felt obliged to give back the above information

    Well, thanks for letting us know. I'm currently getting around 1000 PIs per day, but my earnings are pretty poor and so is my click through rate. I'm only getting an average of $1.30 per/day or something this month, so I'm not sure where I'm going wrong.

    Now that it's half term I'm gonna spend a whole day just promoting my sites, putting them on topsites and that sort of manual work, then after half term when everyone is back at school I'm going to start doing some paid advertising. I think I'll have between $40 and $50, and have 11 proxies. What do you guys suggest?

    Hi,
    I've added a link to your site but it still says it can't find it when I try to sumbit my proxy. :confused:
    What shall I do?

    I've got a proxy problem and I'm hoping someone here can help me. Basically, I've been going through a load of topsites submitting my proxy, and then placing the link back on my site. Anyway, I've run out of footer room and now it just looks silly. I've tried editing the 'Footer.png' file in the theme folder so that the links fit, but it hasn't changed. Anyone know what to do? You can see it at frendz.info... thanks!
