    Is this still a profitable way to make money online?

    Considering it takes the imagination of a rock to make such a site and everybody's and their cats are doing it, I doubt it will be profitable for very long.

    Well, I really love the way people use to drive traffic to their proxy sites.

    It amazes me :)

    Proxy is a low paying Niche. I suggest you choose some other Niche.

    Well it depends, go with a good host that has good uptime, being down for even one day can ruin your site.

    I earned $8-$16 a day with my proxy, and I earn $3-$5 on slow days

    If you wanna make some real one get a dedi server and have a 5 network proxy, that can be like $30-$80 a day.

    Make sure you ban sites like Iran, Iraq, China, and etc so you won't get smart priced. And if you get a lot of clicks report it to adsense, they tend to ban for "robot clicks."

    And proxies are risky, because your making a lot of money, but the visitors are most likely clicking it by accidents, so low conversions.


    It's not

    Not for me.
    There have been days where I earned $15 per day (per site) in couple of days from creating the site.
    But now my proxy sites mostly earn less than 5 cents per click and very rarely $1+ clicks. They were not even able to meet the monthly hosting expense. Finally I have closed them a few days back and parked in Sedo which fetches a good revenue!

    Proxies are NOT ALWAYS LOW PAYERS.

    I don't know why people always say this, clearly it's something they've just heard, and decide to tell others it. In my experience, and clear in others judging by this thread, proxies can pay out VERY well. Obviously sometimes I get a few cents per click, but most days I see clicks of $1-2 each.

    If you have a good server, a proxy IS a good way of making quick money.

    There was a guy here (maybe yesterday) that reported quite good AdSense earnings with a proxy site.

    Proxies don't typically make very much money with AdSense, so I am surprised to hearcreports that some do. There are many risks, though - and technically, a proxy site is against AdSense TOS because there is no content.

    There is on the homepage if you do a writeup about what proxies are, how they protect your identity, etc.
