Proxy Builder Blog

I have just updated the Proxy Builder proxy topsite list, I have a wide variety of traffic building tools for my proxy websites but well maintained topsites can drive in traffic and build pagerank. Many proxy webmasters believe that topsites are only beneficial to their owners, unfortunately in any field there will be people who abuse your trust.

Topsites can be a traffic building powerful tool to webmasters but you have to be able to spot bad apples or you may even hurt the site you are promoting. I have compiled a list of points that may help you in spotting a poorly performing topsite.

• Pop-ups: This usually means the owner has devalued the site, they turn off visitors and can pop up “harmful” adverts.
• Lots of self promotion: Many outbound links to personal websites or sites on unrelated topics can devalue the link to your website.
• You should also watch out for turkish link spam. Many automatic verification topsites become overrun by these malicious spammers. It shows little concern by the owner.
• Poor quality layouts and default images. “Aarvark Topsites PHP” is popular topsite software run on many proxy listing sites on the web. If many of the topsite buttons on your proxy are almost identical you may may turn your layout into an unsightly mess.

These may be general knowledge but its good to set out the basics for even the newest proxy webmasters. I have checked all topsites included in our list and at the time of writing are all to my personal standards. I use many of these topsites on my own proxies and see the benefit on both sides.
