    Hello,

    The best recommendation to you would be opting for a Dedicated Server as this would not effect the performance of your server. The basic reason behind not suggesting you to go in for a VPS is that a proxy server overloads the node and is severly affected by frequent downtimes.

    However, you will also need to work on your budget in order to get the best of the servers and service.:)

    If you like to know more about our servers, then you could send us a mail to

    Regards

    you can get a dedicated from about $70 - re-consider your budget and go dedicated. If you do, you can run 5-10 proxies on it and easily cover the costs of the server.

    Proxy sites aren't stable on vps. It slows down the server performance, if you want your proxy sites to run smoothly then you should opt for dedicated hosting.

    Due to myself only running the one proxy, on a custom script that uses very little cpu, i feel i don't really need a dedicated server at the moment. Also the budget that I currently have only limits myself to a vps.

    Thanks

    try http://fdcservers.net/
    they allow IRC so they will allow proxies too
    their VPS are cheap.
    if you end up signing there please leave me a rep:D
