    i was thinking about this today because i want to make a network of web proxy sites, and i must be prepared with a good hosting. i know it's all about how many visitors has the entire network, but can you guys tell me how much bandwidth uses your web proxy site?

    My proxy network on average uses up over 1GB of traffic per day in total. However, my servers can still handle more loads and if properly marketed, this traffic can be 2-3 times higher.

    Totally relative, based upon how many visitors you get, how much they use your proxy, types of sites surfed, etc.

    14 sites currently, but they're spread out on 3 servers.

    Combined, I get about 1500 unique visits per day. As I said, I should be getting more if I had time to do proper marketing.
