Proxy servers help provide access to blocked websites, allow users to browse websites anonymously and are an easy way to make some extra money for aspiring webmasters. However, before you can begin using your proxy server, you will need to set one up. Many webmasters choose Linux as a base for a proxy server because it is a versatile, free, open-source operating system that can be used to support numerous variants of software. Linux is also used on the majority of web servers, whether they have proxies or not.
Server Requirements
The first conditions you are going to need in order to set up a proxy server on Linux is a high amount of bandwidth and a good server where the software will be installed. Without a high amount of bandwidth, you will not be able to support the constant use of your server. Also, if you do not have hardware that can respond to user requests quickly, proxy server users will look elsewhere.
Proxy Server Choices
There are several options when it comes to what script you will use for your Linux server. Several scripts that are commonly used include Glype, CGI proxy and PHP proxy. Each script has its pros and cons; however, Glype is the most commonly used out of all three. Some of the advantages to Glype include its easy installation--you literally upload a few files and have a functional proxy. Also, Glype is open source, like Linux, a major advantage in the online community.CGI proxy is much more resource intensive than Glype and also does not offer the ability to browse secured websites. PHP proxy is a lightweight solution for your proxy server and is also open source. Whether you end up choosing Glype, CGI proxy or PHP proxy, each program comes with easy installation instructions and is very simple to set up on your proxy server.
Proxy Server Setup
Most of the programs involve downloading the source code for the programs, uploading the files via FTP and possibly changing the permissions for some of the files. However, nearly every program does not require anything more difficult than that. Once you have the files uploaded, you might need to run an installation script, depending on which proxy program you chose. Make sure that you delete the installation folder of your proxy after you have installed; leaving it online may allow your proxy to be reset.
Conclusion
Setting up a proxy on a Linux server is not difficult. You simply need a domain name, FTP account, proxy program and some technical knowledge. Once you have determined which proxy program you are going to use, simply upload and install it following the specific program's instructions, and you will be ready to use a proxy that will be able to help you browse the web anonymously.

The Best Website Hosts for Small BusinessIn Feburary 2016 05,
In Feburary 2016 05,
Your web host should be able to provide you with a clear pricing sheet for a complete hosting solution. Web hosting can be complex and many factors contribute to the type of hosting package you need. Before signing up for a hosting plan, it should be absolutely clear what your monthly price will be and what items may impact your pricing as your web site business grows. For example, some hosting companies limit how much bandwidth or data transfer you can use and charge very high overage fees for breaking those limits. Any change in pricing should be clearly laid out before you sign up.
Dedicated Support
Web hosting is a technical process that requires professional and knowledgeable support from your web hosting company. You should have access to support via a toll-free phone number as well as an easy-to-use online ticket system. Responses to your inquiries should happen promptly. Additionally, the best web hosting companies typically have live technical support via the toll-free number, available 24 hours a day. The hosting company should provide reliable service, and in the case that the server goes down, you need to know your web host will be able to address the problem as soon as possible.
Wide Array of Features
Small business web sites may need very little in terms of advanced features. However, your web host should be able to provide you access to more advanced features on demand as your site grows. For instance, you should have access to a database, secure server, control panel and web statistics to monitor your traffic should you need these items. In many cases, these items are already included in your hosting plan, or sometimes there may be additional fees to add these to your plan. It is important, though, to make sure your company has a wide array of features available to avoid having to transfer to a new host should you require any advanced features.
Go Direct
The best web hosting companies will own and operate their own data centers and servers. Sometimes, web hosting companies pose as being and independent company but are really just reselling another web hosting company’s services. This can cause delays when you are waiting for service items to be addressed. Why report a problem to a middle man when you could just report the problem to the source directly? Make sure that your hosting company is in control of their own servers and data centers; this control is crucial when it comes to addressing technical support inquiries and resolving problems.
