how to make a successful proxy

It seems like more and more webmasters are turning to web proxies to earn their online revenue . But how much money can really be made with proxies sites ? well to be honest with you if done a correct and with the tips mentioned in this article , you have a great opportunity to rake in thousands of dollars each month with proxies.

Definition of proxy ?

You’ll need to know what a proxy site is and what is the reason they are used for before you start making them. basically a web proxy is a website from which Internet users can access other websites that may be blocked from their schools or offices . A proxy allows you to visit all these sites through theirs. At the same time, the proxy site also helps you to mask the visit to the site, so that there is less evidence that the content filter was not successful in preventing the visit. example : if in your work myspace is blocked and you visit a proxy you can then access that site through the proxy, because the proxy site is not blocked by your work or security software.

Now we will begin the guide to a succes proxy !

First you will need a to buy a domain. There are a few things to remember when buying a domain for your proxy:

# 1 : Don’t buy a domain that includes the word “proxy” or “proxies” these two words will be automatically blocked by most internet security softwares and most schools and work places .

#2: Second thing you will need to make sure that you buy a domain that is simple and easy to remember for users so and so that is easy to spread through word of mouth. example : Something that includes words like “surf” “Cloak” “hide” “unlock” etc.

#3: When purchasing a domain name you need to no which TLD to buy (.info .com .net .org etc) . If you are planning to build a network of proxies its recommended that you buy .info TLD’s as they are much cheaper and can be purchased for as little as $1.99.
recommended companies :
name.com
godaddy.com

But if you planning on just making one proxy and running that then a .com TLD it will be better as they rank higher in search engines than other TLD’d and they are more commonly used worldwide.

What after I buy a domain name?

Now you will need a hosting for your domain. But first you will need to make sure that your host company allows proxies to be hosted with them because not all host allows proxies. There is cheap affordable hosting at hostgator. You can try also search forums like Digital point and search for “proxy hosting” and you'll find a cheap hosting package there .

Once you have your hosting set up, and your domains DNS has been pointed to your hosting company, now it's time to make your proxy.

Making your own proxy:

You need to find a template for your proxy. There are too much of free proxies templates on the Internet it is just a matter to find them. Try google search for “Free proxy template” this should give you a lot of results. There is a list of sites that i recommend for you : Myproxytemplates , Phproxydesigns , Skinmyproxy and Freeproxytemplates .

What proxy should I use?

There is a lot of proxy scripts . You can choose between two different popular ones. First one is a php proxy, of which there are several different varieties, such as PHProxy, Zelune, and Glype. The other type is CGI. Php this is easier to install and doese’nt take up much space at all or server resources, but it does require a lot of bandwidth. CGI uses less bandwidth, but it is harder to install and uses more server resources.So for a beginner I suggest Php proxies especially Zelune .

It’s time to edit your proxy , and add some adsense banners to start earning money :

When your proxy is up you need a way to start earning money, some of the best ways to do so is start using google's adsense . This is a program were you are paid for every click and impressions that your site generate . but remeber always that you can only add your Goolge adsense to the front page of your proxy and not on the proxified pages you can use an alternative on the proxified pages, i recommend to use Adbrite .

Adding you adsense banners is quite simple it’s all usually done through your config.php file. Here you can add your Adsense publisher id, site name, meta keywords, and the description of your site etc.

Now its time to get some traffic to this proxy and start making money !

#2: Add your site to directories and topsites it will helps to. You need to add your site to as many as you can the more you add to the more traffic you will get.
