How to start making money with Proxies having no funds?
I’ve seen much people creating their Proxies from free templates avaible all over the net and I also have heard a lot of them whinning about not getting any money from them.
I’m writing this article to give them some advices, because I also created some proxies to earn little money to start something serious and useful.
First thing – don’t expect to make 100$ in two days having no funds for advertising, hosting and domains. To earn something You have to work for it. Nothing comes free.
I think I can help You so read the rest of article and decide whether it was worth it.
Anyway, let’s begin:
- The Domain
- Webhosting
- Template
- Advertising
- Choosing a way to monetize Your taffic
There are 2 options, first option - easy way - If you have like 10$ to spend You can register a domain at Hostgator, or Namecheap, that’s it. Second option gives You a little less but hey, we’re building something from nothing. And to do this we will use some free domains like www.dot.tk or www.co.cc. You just simply register the name and link it to Your site. Hey, You’ve reached an end of a first step, congratulations!
Well, for the most, this is the hardest part. Most of free hosting sites don’t allow of proxy scripts. I got my first server for proxy from a member of Digital Point Forum. He offered it as a free to use, because he was building his populatiry. My advice - do the same. Visit some forums and find someone who will let You host Your proxy site at his hosting, in return do some advertising for him. The quickest way in my opinion.
Ah yes, the template. Most of Proxy creators think, that template doesn’t matter and are downloading some free templates from google. Bad idea, If You want to have rising popularity and more traffic on Your site remember that look of Your proxy is very important. If someone visits Your proxy and see the design diffrent than the rest, he will remember it, and maybe he will tell about Your site to his friends. You see - unique style can make You bigger traffic, bigger traffic means higher revenue from the site. So think about it and try to create unique template.
But, if You’re lack of graphic talent or simply don’t want to do a unique template I advice You to see free templates, that I offer. You can see them here and choose one You like the most.
After everything is done and placed, where it supposed to be we can advertise a little. We now have a fully developed proxy with unique design and a name. The easiest way to advertise is by Yahoo groups and visiting many forums( especially college/students forums). Take some effort in writing a short description of Your proxy and why do You think it is better than other proxies and post it on forums and good groups on Yahoo. Repeat it couple of times. If You do it properly You can be sure, that Your traffic will explode in less than a week.
Proxy sites haven’t got much of choice. The best choice is Google Adsense( PPC system) or affiliate, that is paying for displaying 1000 impressions of his banner on Your Site (called CPM). From my experience YesAdvertising.com is the best choice. They have a good CPM rates (as high as 1.80$ for 1000 impressions) and they are able to pay directly to Your Paypal account.
So, 5 simple steps to build Your first proxy. I earned in this way 56$ in first month. Not much, but I was able to buy my own hosting account, 3 domains and some advertising. In second month (after paying for hosting) I earned about 84$. That’s how I made my first money with using a proxies sites. Wish You all the same.
Ofcourse I can’t promise You thisearning, I can only tell You, that if You’ll be patient and put some effort in it, You can earn nice sum of money(when Your network will grow) or earn enough to move on with Your ideas.
