    not enough if you plan to have more than 5 or 6 good proxys going. wont cut it.

    and i have one of those and i was running 6 CGI proxys and was told to remove them or upgrade.

    they are to expensive for what you guys plan to do so keep looking.

    hows your earnings from your proxys? im guessing you have them SEO to? And i think im doing pretty good getting my last two proxies SEO one of them will have like 120 backlinks and the other will have like 20-30 so i think getting indexed will be easy but how long till i get to the 2-3rd page of google?

    That must have been a misunderstanding. I use my VPS to the max in all ways. They tell me its fine, but they RECOMMEND me to upgrade.
    By the way, no use to use cgi proxies anymore.

    If the links you get are on decent sites that dont have tons of links 20-30 should be able to get you on the second or third page easily.

    The real problem would be bandwidth with ServInt. ServInt is great, but only 300GB on the Essential VPS. scaling up to the higher end plans would become as expensive as a dedicated machine with a lot more bandwidth.

    Seems like a bad way to go for proxies.

    we will see what happens, i told myself that if i make enough to cover the costs of a proxy server by at least 5 times that i would do it. So at the end of this month i see success with SEO proxies instead of just a mass number of them then ill upgrade.

    Excellent article. I have been doing many of the things you covered in this article for a bit now and I have seen some great results!

    A buddy of mine is running a proxy and it seems that his traffic suddenly dipped from 1,000 uniques a day to about 10.... (over a several week period). Any ideas as to what may have caused this?

    best thing i can think of is that those people who used it were people over seas like iran and they used your site and told everyone, they used it for a bit then just all proxy hoped, because they got that proxy banned or just decided to move on.
