The Proxy Discussion Thread

Interesting idea - what did you have the timer set to?

 

I have the script - now to testing it.

 

How much do you guys earn from one proxy per day?

 

it depends on the traffic mainly. now all have little less revenue

 

one proxy without promote can earn few cents per day. but one proxy with heavy promote can go to x$-xx$ a day. it's depend.

 

Great proxy discussion. I read & appreciated.

 

I worked with proxies for a long time ago, and the requests of proxies were huge back then. I wondered if you still could sell small proxy sites with minimum income for $xx bucks?

 

You still can. They usually go for 3-4 times (or less) the monthly revenue.

 

I earn <$10 a day on my set and forget proxy network

 

So, let's know how to reach this amount of money. Thank you

 

I just started proxy sites 2 weeks before.. BUT all my proxy hosting BW has gone now.. had to upgrade hosting account twice.. sad part is i m not getting much income from adsense which i put on index.. ANY solution ? good ads for proxied pages or what should i do to earn more, or reduce killing my bw ... I m using glype theme/// I got 15 proxy sites

Thanks

 

Have you blocked any countries from the proxy at all? The traffic from some countries is nearly impossible to monetize and just ends up wasting your bandwidth.

 

no idea how to block and which countries to block.. .. I m using glype theme..... it seems you providing free hosting... interesting

 

With my hosting service proxies are only alowed with the proxy hosting plans due to the resource intensive nature of proxies.

To block countries use something like this website: http://www.blockacountry.com/ and as for which countries to block many people tend to block China and Iran as that traffic is hard to monetize. Others go further and block many asian, south american and middle eastern countries also.

 

The proper way to block countries is to use proxy hosting with mod_geoip installed, then you can block whole countries with just a few lines in the .htaccess file. I use xproxyhost.com myself and it has that already. The other way is to add code to your index and browse files in glype, then download the geoip files and upload to your hosting. It does the same thing but there might be a slight speed penalty. You can redirect the 'bad' traffic to wherever you like though. PM me for the code if you can't find it anywhere.

 

The idea here is excellent...does it make sense, especially re Adsense TOS? Found in proxy(.)org forum.



[CSGH] Monetise Your Search Traffic - 01-27-2011, 09:36 PM
Save the file as google.com.php in your plugins folder.

As always a demo is live at my main proxy.

To get this to work you need to set up a google custom search, and copy/paste the pub code from the one name="cx" input to the "your code goes here" section.

Hopefully that's clear enough, I would have left my pubcode in as an example to you guys but the last time I did that all of my posts related to the topic got deleted by the admins.

Anyway, best of luck monetising your traffic! And this DOES comply with google TOS because you're proxying the search page with ads on it, not putting ads on a page.

function preParse($input, $type)

switch($type) {

if(preg_match("/<form[^>]*action=.\/search./",$input,$search))

// Return changed
return $input;
}

return $input;

So how does this work with the google mail plugin? I already have a google.com.php to allow gmail to work, it forces non-java mode. Can they be combined into one so the google plugin does two jobs? I'd hate to lose the gmail ability. And how sure can you be that it is within google ToS? There is mention of "... not interfering with code..." and "... redirecting traffic..." so it could be a grey area.

My google.com.php code is:

I promised him a link to his site - where it is shown live.

http://ipbgone.com

 

I am reasonable (who can say more) happy that search is ok on the proxified page - the most definitive thing about proxies I could find from Adsense stated "Publishers are permitted to place Google ads on the homepages of anonymous proxy sites, but not in the frames around pages viewed through the proxy. The concern is that the publisher is unable to control the content of pages framed by his ads."
Ergo the problem they have is the publishers control of the content. In this instance the control is 100%. I.e. whatever the publisher puts on the page and the Google created search page.

 

i saw some paid proxy services like slickyproxy.com ... . can any one tell me how i get a script like that please
