hosting proxies

[aleeonline]

you guys thing hosting proxies on a shared environment is a bad idea? why?

[karl-marx]

It's better to have VPS or semi-dedi at least.

its nearly impossible to run a popular proxy even on a semi-dedi you should definitely get a fully dedicated server so you can abuse it in anyway you want

[sharkee]

Yeah, it's definitely a bad idea to have proxy sites on a shared hosting server. This reseller hosting I was on actually allowed proxies on the same server I had my site on. This really affected my hosting so I was glad to move. Proxies should have their own dedicated server.

Proxies use too many resources to be on a shared hosting account. Some hosts will throttle your account, if your traffic is high, to protect the others on the server.

I would not run a proxy unless I had a dedicated server.

Try http://santrex.net/proxyhosting.php. They are providing cheap and quality proxy.

thanks everyone.. by your replies, ive figured out that i must go for a separate hosting.. well lets c what happens.. thanks mp3 for the link, looking at it now..

[gamescoper]

you could also host yourself by buying not renting but buying a server so its completely yours and your only limit would be your hardrive

[bizwiz]

Well it's pretty hard to find a cheap dedicated proxy host but I plan to host my proxy with these guys aqns-hosting.com since their rates are pretty competitive.

[Audriux14]

I agree with your opinions ... Good and cheap proxy is hard to find.. and if you find it post it here... because in mp3 link i didnt find very good proxies...

If you need proxy hosting give me a yell, depending on your growth rate and current resource usage i can provide some affordable hosting for your proxy.

Just take care with the CPU usage. Bandwidth isn't usually the problem of proxy hosting. It's CPU and RAM, which I've learned by time.

proxy use all the resourses of hosting bandwidth.Proxies use too many resources to be on a shared hosting account. Some hosts will throttle your account, if your traffic is high, to protect the others on the server.

[ddiscer]

proxies use a lot of bandwith. you can make a server for proxies and server for other sites.
