    makes a lot fo money, especially with adsense, (i have not had a proxy site), but seeing everyone else jump on the proxy train and create proxy sites, and making money, i wanted to try it too.

    ByPassing filters for work/school, and with adsense it makes a pretty penny.

    It depends on the number of page views not unique visitors since you might get 1 visitor that browses 1000 pages and 1 visitor that browses 1 page - both a re 1 visitor but the first one will use much more bandwidth

    IT also depends if you apply bandwidth limiting mods or leaving the script working with default set up

    I started out with one of my proxy sites using Tec Entrances Proxy A hosting plan which is 25 gigs, but mine the first month almost took it all up without much advertising. My other proxy uses almost 200 gigs.
    I will prob upgrade my account with tech entrance and move my other site to him as well when my other hosting expires.
    Good Luck
