My hosting costs were covered in the first week. Now it's pure profit. I don't have my own server or anything though. It's still possible though. Just not as easy as before.
had $5 clicks in the past by fluke yesterday i had 100 clicks - it is jumping all over the show random random, today will probably end up being a $2 day knowing my luck And yes it is all from proxy web sites - not including the (tiny) amounts i earn with other networks on my proxied pages, which arnt even worth logging into see No one else seems to share their figures unless they are pissed with them...
lol funny here are my figures for the month of october for adsense Page Impressions : 77,388 Clicks : 307 Earnings : $51.61 And i made $40 by selling text links as all my proxies have got PR and made $60 so far by the banners i sold in link in my signature That sums up to $150 for 9 days Hosting expenses for proxies : $55/month Promotion expenses for proxies : $40 overall Predicted earnings for Proxies : $500/month And i bought 50% of my proxies 10 days back for $200 which provides just iran traffic so not good for adsense but good for proxified pages ads as it fetches lots of visitors and pageviews so provides me ease in selling banner ads
Thats very good, my expenses are much much higher so profit will be no where near that amount for me sadly I have my eye on a new (more expensive) server its time to expand even more Limiting factor for me currently is bandwidth - new one comes with 10tb so i should be good to push out more and more despite the higher running costs People actually bought banners of you also! I must look into that
run proxies on a vps thts the cheapest way to run proxies never run them on shared or dedicated as it will always cost you high thanks goldmon after buying proxies from you i just submitted them to over 100 topsites and to few google and yahoo groups and their stats were just doubled now i get about 300-500k pageviews combinedely on whole network and about 10k visitors a day
a vps could not handle what i serve - my quad core xeon is struggling currently! Adsense: $98 (last few days have been rocking) Adversal: $49 Freedom of shit ads: $19 $166 in 9 days! Dammit i am ditching freedom of ads and going to try selling banners like you
But hold on what type of vps are you on 500,000 page views a day sounds awfully high would be interested in seeing your provider buying i buy this new server
i am currently hosting with clandrive.com it takes 30gb bandwidth a day and you are getting exceptionally good from your proxies $166 in 9 days is grt adversal din't fetched me anything i added it for 2 days even CPA lead was worthless
i am using 140gb per day ! So realistically you are doing far better with less overhead. Page views Total for 9 days in October 560,837 Going to try selling some banners now
No clue about uniques, my logs are way to big to try and do currently I am about to buy a $300 server, should help me expand by at least double from my current $240ish one (little outdated now)
now i feel my revenue is good enough in accordance to the expenses as it comes up to about 80% revenue and 20% expenses of total earnings
the purpose of proxy is to help people to bypass filter/firewall so maybe you can redirect iranian / china and all low converted contry to somewhere else (proxy site) so they still can surf website withoutkilling your bandwidth.... -don't forget that my 2 cent
Whahaha you made me laugh dude But yeah that's true, they give some shitty traffic but it can help sometimes... Greetz
