    Hello,

    I remember in the past I used to visit Proxy.org which list largest collection of free & paid web proxy sites and they were count around 400 website but now I see 4,629+ site listed & growing every day

    so what is the secret ?? here is my questions I appreciate you answer one or some of them

    1- What is the daily average number of visitors to proxy website ??
    2- Which countries are most using those proxies from your web stat ?
    3- Do you earn from CPC or CPM or Both and what is your average per day?
    4- How much you pay for Hosting and do you use VPS or Dedicated server and can ads revenue cover the server cost ?

    thanks

    For my best proxy site (note: during summer) I get around 300-1000 hits a day. Most of which are unique, and often come from soldiers in Iraq (to bypass military firewalls!) That answers the first 2 questions. During the school year I expect a lot of traffic from students. A lot localized, as I go to school I will be advertising in house. Probably 1000+ a day total.

    Mainly earn from clicks. I average anywhere from $1-$5 per day with my best site.

    I highly recommend starting a full network with more than one proxy!

    I get hosting from a friend, it is a reseller and i have enough of everything. It is fast, but sometimes it gets a little crowded. I highly recommend dedi or VPS! I don't think ads will pay for a DEDI or VPS, at least not right away and especially not with just one.

    Advertise with reciprocals from other sites. Don't mess with topsites, they are hardly ever as they are made up to be, a topsite one that gets a lot of hits has thousands of sites, yours start on page 200 something. Also try to get a mailing list, or get yours added to one, these are guaranteed hits!

    Use proxies as a learning experience, don't expect a living off of them, though try your best and you never know! I am not saying it isn't possible, but dont expect it. Have fun and learn, thats why I do proxies! I have learned more than anything else.

    1) GooD Proxy: 1k to 2k
    2) Asian, Middle East, Turkey During the Summer, IN the Winter you get alot of US traffic
    3) CPC here Avgerage during the winter from all my sites is about $100 a day
    4) Dedicated, $169 a month, and the ads cover it.

    A few months ago proxy.org had over 10k listings, but than controversy caused it go down to 4k, you can read about it here

    I have a whole section on my blog related to proxies you can read everythin you want to know here

    I use it from thewird, he's the best. He handles over 60 servers so he knows what he's doing.

    His rates are good and the servers are optimized for proxies, I've tried alot of other VPS's and dedicated but nothing has beaten this service.

    Off season (when school is out) busiest sites gets ~350 uniques/day, all sites aggregated ~2500/3000 uniques/day

    When schools are in session, busiest ~800+ uniques/day, all sites aggregated ~7500 uniques/day

    US, UK, Australia in that order; seeing a little more Chinese/Iranian traffic now schools are out. Also, I had to shut one down for a few weeks due to Chinese traffic - was getting 20K/uniques per day from China after someone dropped a link to it on a Chinese pr0n forum.

    Minimal CPM. CPC averaging $5 to $15/day

    Dedicated hosting, 100MB unmetered
