New web proxy blog

[Paz]

One of our forum members, Glen, has launched a web proxy blog, but he's too modest to announce it here, so we'll announce it for him. :-P

If you don't know what a web proxy is you enter a url into a box and the proxy crawls and downloads the page automatically for you. Subsequent clicks are also viewed via the http proxy. This allows people in countries where internet access is restricted to view banned sites, and there's a massive potential market for web proxies in my view.

How do they make money though? How much money can they make? You'll have to read Glenn's web proxy blog (http://www.webproxyblog.com/) to find out.

Wow, just noticed this, thanks for the link

I havnt been able to make as many posts as i wanted too, but the proxies have made me nearly $400 this month

I never thought that proxies could be profitable - I always imagined them to be rather seedy, lol :p

glad to hear that its going so well. I'll definately keep an eye on the blog :)

LOL I'm suprised you didn't notice a surge in South African traffic that almost brought your server to a halt.

We call it the "dig-m effect"... ;)

You shouldn't sell a site that's potentially making 400 bucks a month, not even 40 a month. Web proxies are a bit of a pain because of the bandwidth but they have a future. If you're ahead, leave things as is and build another site would be my best advice.
