This page exists because the search you ran has almost no honest results. Nearly every page ranking for "Cipinet alternative" earns a commission on the answer it gives you. We earn money if you pick us, which we are stating in the first paragraph rather than the footer.
What we can and cannot tell you about Cipinet
The company behind the name sits at cipinet.com.
What we do not hold is a current, sourced price for Cipinet. Rather than print a figure we cannot stand behind, this page leaves it out and tells you what to look for when you read their page yourself.
Copy down the entry rate, the commitment attached to the cheapest rate, the minimum top-up and the expiry rule. Those four turn a marketing figure into something you can compare.
What Cipinet says about itself today
As of 9 September 2026 the tab reads "Web & Business Directory , Online Resources, Cipinet". The blurb under their search result reads: "Popular web directory online since 2002. Submit your website with free or paid options to boost search visibility and drive targeted traffic."
Also on the page, stated plainly:
We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.
None of that is verified performance. It is what the vendor chose to publish, recorded with a date so you can see whether it still says the same thing.
The domain record
The domain was registered on 16 August 2002, through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, which makes it about 24 years old. Those dates come from a registry query on 9 September 2026. Their registration is booked through 16 August 2027.
Read that as a floor rather than a recommendation. Longevity says somebody has kept paying the registrar, and in a market with this much churn that is worth ten seconds of your attention.
Where published figures stop being useful
The expiry question
Find out whether unspent traffic rolls over, expires, or expires only on some plans. The answer changes the effective rate by more than most of the price differences buyers spend their time arguing about.
What the lowest rate actually costs
Treat a required call with a salesperson as a cost. It delays the work, it usually arrives with an annual term attached, and it exists because the published price is negotiable in one direction only.
What actually caps your throughput
Bandwidth is rarely the constraint on a real workload. Concurrent connections, requests per second and per-session caps are, and they are frequently buried in the documentation rather than the pricing page.
A comparison that admits what it cannot say
The rows below are the ones that change what you pay and whether the job runs:
| Question to ask | Cipinet | HProxy |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | Not verified by us, read their page | From $0.44/GB, pay as you go |
| Does unused balance expire? | Check the current terms, this one moves | Never |
| Minimum commitment | Not published clearly, ask before paying | None |
| Identity checks | On their own terms page | Card orders are screened, and verification is sometimes requested |
| Targeting | Not published clearly, ask before paying | Country, city and ISP |
| Free way to evaluate | On their own terms page | Free proxy list and proxy checker |
Blanks in that table are deliberate. We print what we read and date it, and leave the rest empty rather than repeating something we cannot stand behind.
How to settle it yourself in ten minutes
Run this before you commit any volume. It replaces every opinion on this page, including ours.
- Open an account on each and add the smallest amount they take. Skip the trial if a paid unit is cheap enough to buy outright.
- Point both at your real target, through your real tool, on the same day, with the same mix of requests.
- Log successes, failures and gigabytes used. Cost per successful request is the figure you are after.
- Verify a slice of the exits independently. Country labels in this market are self-reported and are not always right.
- Buy the one that won on your target, and diarise a re-test in three months.

Where HProxy sits in that test
We sell residential proxies from $0.44 per GB with no subscription and a balance that does not expire, plus ISP, mobile and datacenter in the same account. That is the pitch, and the test above is a better judge of it than this paragraph.
