Lo there one and all.

I'm putting one of my proxies up for sale, as the massive amount of requests of all my sites is just a little bit too much for my server.

URL: http://www.thecgiproxy.com
Age of site (months): 4
Monthly revenue: minimal
Revenue details:
I'm currently running chitika and Layer-Ads on it. Daily revenue is around .50-1$ per day, so really minimal. I think this could be easily optimized by using Adsense (which I don't have an account with at this time) or better integration - I'm an expert in getting traffic and building sites, but not an expert in monetizing sites...

Traffic details:
Overview
Detailed February
Detailed March (as of 24th)

Description:
TheCGIProxy.com is a free anonymous proxy browser using the CGIProxy script (perl/cgi). It's listed in topsites, as well as proxy.org.

Type of site:
Established and functional website with traffic (see stats).

Google page rank: 5
Before people start discussing the PR, yes it has got a PR of 5, see SEOLogs Fake PR Check. Google is doing it's dance, so some tools/toolbars might not display it correctly (yet).

The links to the site from all my sites will stay up at least for another month after the sale (additional and/or longer running link trades can be discussed after the sale).

Alexa Site Ranking:
Traffic Rank for thecgiproxy.com: 426,990 (as of posting this thread)

Domain:
Domain is registered at godaddy (free push) and is valid until Nov 2006.

Requirements:
As a proxy site, a decent machine (ideally a dedicated server with unmetered connection) should be used to host it. The used machine needs to run Apache(2) with CGI/Perl support!

Status:
The proxy script has currently been disabled for load-issues on my server. You can have a look at the site nontheless, the only thing different is that the admin team message replaces the normal proxy form...see screenshot

Payment:
Payments are accepted via Paypal only. Content and domain will be pushed on receiving the funds.

Starting bid: $300

BIN: edit: 1200$

Duration:
This auction will end one week from now (Friday March 31st, midnight GMT+1) - Disclaimer: I reserve the right to add a BIN at which the site can be bought right away.

Further infos:
I've tried to provide all the information I can. If there's something missing or if you've got additional questions, feel free to contact me directly via pm and/or mail (ingoal[at]gmail[dot]com).

Thanks...currently leading bid: Crooky - 300$

Sidenote: nice to see so many (turnkey) proxies pop up for sale atm, NOT...

Why should you consider my site over the others?
  1. This is an established site, not one up for < 30 days
  2. This site has got a PR5, not some predicted BS...
  3. Major traffic (remember that in Webalizer Sites=uniques)

Get your bid in, before it's too late...5+ days remaining...Thanks for looking.

Did you have it on a dedicated server and it still couldn't handle it?

Not really, I should have been more clear in my initial post:

The problem isn't that my dedicated server can't handle this site...the problem is the amount of sites that are on this one dedicated server (around 25 atm, including 2 other proxy sites, two image hosting sites etc, all high traffic) - so there are only two possible solutions:

  1. Get an additional dedicated server
  2. Get load of the server by selling some high traffic sites

I decided to go with 2. :)

Edit: Due to popular demand to see the site in action, I've re-enabled the proxy script! Happy testing...

Had numerous questions about the bandwidth usage, so I'm answering it here:

1. The webalizer count of bandwith only shows the bandwith used by the home-folder of the domain, which means that the bandwidth used by the proxy-script itself isn't properly shown.
2. As I've got numerous domains on the server I can only estimate the true bandwith usage, but given the fact that thecgiproxy.com has more uniques/visits per day than any of my other proxies I would say it's safe to assume that the usage is somewhere above 200GB/month

Roughly 30 hours left...
