Proxy Profits :: Your Definitve Guide on How to Make Money Online With Proxies
There are over 31 billion searches in google every month. That is 5 times the entire worlds population finding answers to life’s least important questions, every month. In 2006 this number was just 2.6 billion. That is a 1200% increase in just a mere three years. We are living in exponential times and our world is getting smaller at an astonishing rate, internet privacy and security has never been more important than it is right now. The most common way to browse the internet with unparalleled safety and anonymity, not to mention unblocking previously blocked websites, has been to use a proxy server.
A proxy server acts in much the same way as a human proxy does, it is a web-based representative for your computer. When you surf the internet using a proxy, no one sees you or your computer, they only see the proxy that is doing your dirty work. This means that you can sneak past all the virtual bouncers that have locked you out of your favorite websites at work or school, you can visit all the naughty sites you wish without your significant other finding out, and no hacker will discover your ip address and steal all of your data.
So we have so far established that there are more people surfing the web now than ever before, and that these people are in dire need of a little privacy and security. We have also learnt that a web proxy is the best solution for these people. So the only conclusion we can therefore reach is that proxies must be extremely popular. But who runs and profits from these traffic magnets? that’s where this article comes in. After reading this you will be ready to set the foundations for your money spinning proxy empire!
I am going to talk about two ways of getting into the proxy market, by owning a proxy network, and by owning a proxy lister.
Proxy Networks
A proxy network is, believe it or not, a network of proxies. The concept is very basic, each proxy server that you own makes money by displaying ads and such, so it only makes sense to multiply your profits by making more proxies. All of the proxies that you own is called your proxy network, each and every one of these proxies make a bit of money, and put together a network of say 10, 100 or even 1000 proxies and you have the potential to rake in some really serious cash.
To build a proxy server you need only 4 things:
Hosting A Domain Name A good Proxy Script A bit of know-how (supplied here)
Hosting and Domains
I am not going to go into hosting and domain names too deeply, as there are literally hundreds of equally good hosting companies and domain registrars to choose from that will serve your purposes perfectly. What I will say is that I recommend you register a domain name with a different company than your hosting provider. More and more hosting providers are getting the nasty reputation of playing hostage with your domain names when you choose to terminate a contract, so it’s best just to play it safe and go with a dedicated domain registrar.
Try and avoid using ‘proxy’ in the actual domain name as many school and work content blockers have ‘proxy’ on their blacklist. When trying to register a domain, the TLD (.com, .net, .info, etc.) is not too important, you are going to have to register a lot of domains, so going for the cheapest option would make sense. For the domain registrar to go with, I personally use and recommend Namecheap They offer great support and competitive pricing, if you can find a better deal then take it. Remember the only thing that changes in domain registrars is their level of support and pricing, all services do the same thing.
As far as hosting goes, I can only suggest that you either go with a specialized ‘proxy hosting’ package that many hosting providers are offering now, or go through your chosen hosting companies TOS (terms of service) with a fine toothed comb. A lot of hosting providers don’t like hosting proxies on shared accounts because they can be a bit of a resource hog. Other than this, just make sure you have enough disk space and bandwidth to suit your needs.
As a general rule I try and stay away from hosts that offer
Desperate for Money? Try Asking!
The economy stinks, you’ve lost your job, and you can’t make your house payment. Maybe it’s not quite so dire: you need a new pair of glasses or some dental work, and your insurance plan won’t cover it. Or perhaps you’re a college student and you want to finish up your degree without accumulating quite so large a mountain of debt. It could be these or one of a thousand other situations, but one thing is clear: you need more money than you can put your hands on right now, and you have no idea how to get it. Has it ever occurred to you to just ask?
We’ve all heard the old adage, “ask and you shall receive.” What if it’s true? What if we could get our needs met, our wishes fulfilled, merely by asking? Recent history has shown that some people can! Documented examples of “cyber-begging,” as it’s become known, can be traced as far back as 1998, but it first became widely known during the summer of 2002 when
