Description:
Free proxy site online.

I purchased the site foxyproxy in this week only. I think it's the 13th of february if not mistaken.

This site is gaining too much bandwith consumption per day that it is killing my vps server now. I am not a server tech guy, so i have no idea how this proxy site is killing my other sites. But i have had several downtime for my vps. That is why awstats did not have that few days's stats shown. This causes my other sites down as well.

My webhosting guy told me that there has been several black zone and red zone time where my vps is eating up too much memory or something.

If the site was down for so many times, i think revenue can be greater. But oh well, i am a newbie in managing servers.

ANyway, here is the stats and revenue for these few days:-

1) Unique visitors
2) Daily Visits Breakdown
3) Revenue until feb 20 1.31 a.m. pacific time
4) Revenue from adsense Updated feb 21 4.20 a.m. pacific time


Will update after few more hours.

Domain registered at domainsite.

Note: i reserved the right to pull off this auction anytime.

Bid of 500 received at another forum.

Price (or starting bid): 550

BIN Price: 2500

Is an auction?: Yes

Note: I need to get rid of this as soon as possible.

Accepts paypal, bank transfer, wire, and maybe escrow.

Hi,

I just was wondering where you get the $5-$10 per day from? When I look at the Google Adsense screenshots one says $3.78 average and the other a $4.24 average?

Thread cleaned up and a warning has been issued.

You must admit that $3 is good for adsense. That would be $30 with YPN.

latest adsense reports $7.23 today at 4.23 pacific time. I can make a screenshot if you guys want.

Also, i have only adsense up on the main page. I think i can put cpm banners in the browsing page. I think this is the most revenue coming from.

How about where the visitors are coming from? I am getting pretty interested I'm just trying to find a host that would be able to accommodate a site like this.

Thanks!

Do you know of a host that would handle the site and if so how much would the costs be? Also are you sure the traffic will stay like that? Do you have proof from before?

kjmz,

I am not a webhosting guy, so i do not know where to find hosts as this. But webhostingtalk has many good offers there. I am just lazy to work on this proxy site.

And i can possibly say that no one can guarantee constant traffic, but trust me, proxy sites grow very fast all the time. All comes from word of mouth. Provided that it's a working proxy.

Oh yea, i have no idea why it growed so fast in few days. I think some user posted in some forums and this is how it is. And this is why my server suddenly can't handle this anymore. :td:

Can you send me the specs of your current server and also can you tell me if it can handle the load or not?

Thanks!

How much bandwidth does it currently use (per month)

If I can get an update on the stats again, I would appreciate. I just want to see if it's following a similar trend.

Thanks!

I am lazy to post screenshots. Btw, the site can be considered as pending because someone paid me half and will pay me half after the transfer of the domain.

Will keep you guys updated if the sale doesnt go through.
