A UK-based proxy site is on sale, with an average of 200,000 unique visitors per month. While GA reports about 1 million monthly unique visits to the homepage, the actual figure including proxified pages is estimated at 10-12 million. Initially, the site generated approximately £200-250 monthly from both AdSense and another ad network. The current owner intended to start a premium proxy service but didn't pursue it, leading to changes in monetization strategies. They replaced AdSense with XtendMedia and openads, generating around £100 per month. Adversal ads were disabled for a period but currently yield approximately £150 monthly with hover ads. During March and April, the site experienced a few weeks of downtime due to server updates.
The website ranks highly on Google for various proxy-related terms, holding the top position for "UK proxy" and "UK web proxy." It’s recognized for its strong domain rating and approximately 1,300 inbound natural links. The site's valuation was reduced from £450 to £200 per month, attributed to the absence of AdSense and pop-under ads. However, the owner suggests there's potential for increased revenue through premium proxy services, with guidance available. Despite minimal maintenance requirements, the site remains highly trafficked, maintaining its strong position in search engine rankings. Current ad revenues are approximately £200 monthly. Average monthly traffic includes 200,000 visitors and an estimated 12 million page views.Prospective buyers are encouraged to ask questions and refer to a specific online platform for potential revenue details with the right ad networks.
