How to make money with proxy sites

Down below I will tell you how to make money in proxy business. It is a very easy way to get rich without any complexity or expenses.

Getting Started

fundamentals

First you need a web hosting provider allowing you to execute PHP scripts of your choice and a easy to remember domain name like unlock-website.com.

proxy engine

Next step is to download phproxy or a similar web proxy engine (this explanation is for phproxy only). After decompressing files from the downloaded archive, spend some time to explore the file index.inc.php. It is the only file you have to modify to create a web proxy with a custom design.

customize proxy engine

You can obtain free html templates from Open Source Web Designs or Free CSS Templates. Copy all the files of your free template into the phproxy folder and rename the file index.inc.php to index.inc.php.old and the file index.html (most of the free template packages include only a index.html and style.css) to index.inc.php. The reason why you should not delete the old index.inc.php is that you have to embed the html form of this file into the new index.inc.php file at a position of your choice to make phproxy working with your new web design template.

Promote your site

Installing and configurig your web proxy project is the first step, but the ultimate goal is to attract visitors by promoting your website efficiently to gain profit out of it.

Toplists

One possibility to do so is to submit your website to toplists. There are many toplists out there but only a few push a really awesome amount of traffic to your website. Some proxy toplists I recommend are proxy-toplist.net, tech-faq.com and pirateproxies.com.

A wide overview of proxy topsites can be found on firewall-bypass.com.

Publish Adverts

Now let us take a look at the interesting part of a proxy project - making money! To start earning dollars you have to publish adverts on your page.

Context-oriented ads

I recommend to publish Google AdSense adverts on the main page of your proxy site. With Google AdSense you are able to serve ads based on the website content, so users will often click an advert because they are really interested in it. Sometimes you earn up to 2$ per click with proxy related keywords. You have to position the adverts nearby the surfbar which the visitor depends on to surf with your web proxy.

Layer Ads

Another consideration you can think about is to display layer ads on your website. The advantage of layer ads are that they are paid per view by the most advertising networks. The disadvantage is that your are annoying your visitors and sometimes scare them away from your site. Also you can not show this type of adverts on your main page because it would conflict with Google AdSense guidelines. So you have to show those ads not till then the visitor starts surfing his sites with your web proxy. You can do so if you copy the code snippet you got from your layer advertising platform just before the html code in the index.php file.

advertising networks

The best provider for converting international traffic into money is definitively PopupTraffic, they pay you up to $1.80 per 1.000 visitors and they even pay for non uniques and all countries. The best provider for converting traffic from Germany, Switzerland or Austria is Layer Ads. They pay you up to 7 EUR ($10) per 1.000 impressions. If you know better providers, please let me know it.

Geo-targeted ads

To efficiently capitalize your incoming traffic, you should locate what country your visitor is surfing from to display ads of the advertising network which has the highest payout rates for traffic of the particular country. You can do so by implementing a geo-locating database to associate IP-Ranges with countries.
