We compete with Geonode (old list host), so treat every line below as coming from an interested party. What follows is the record we hold, the questions their marketing page does not answer, and a test you can run yourself that outranks this page and every other review.
What is on file for Geonode (old list host)
Their site is proxylist.geonode.com. Category, as we track it: free proxy list.
There is no price in this comparison because we do not have one we can date and attribute. What follows instead is the set of questions that decide the cost once you do read their page.
Take down four numbers and a date: reachable rate, minimum purchase, commitment for the floor rate, and expiry period. Anything less and you cannot compare them to anyone.
The site, as it reads today
The title tag on 9 September 2026 was "404 Not Found".
Reading the same page for the things buyers actually ask about:
We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.
Treat all of it as advertising, because it is. Its value is that it is dated and quotable, which is more than most comparison pages offer.
Who actually runs Geonode (old list host)
We checked this one by hand on 6 September 2026. It is a list, and we record the operator as a company that sells proxies. It has been folded into another list rather than shut down, so the name survives as a redirect. Old host of the geonode list, now 404.
This list belongs to a business selling proxies. Read it as marketing that happens to contain data rather than as a neutral survey, in the same way you should read ours.
The Internet Archive has it from 1 October 2022 to 2 April 2023, about 2 years of coverage.
Every list in this category has the same underlying problem, which is decay. We measure it on our own network and publish it: 4023 alive right now out of 589918 ever discovered, median lifespan 145 hours. A list is only as good as its last check.
The questions behind the numbers
Networks age, so re-test quarterly
Supply changes hands quietly in this industry. The network behind a brand can be replaced with no announcement, which is why a benchmark is a perishable good and a re-test is cheap insurance.
Ten million addresses, and none of them yours
Claims of ten million, one hundred million or more say nothing about whether your requests get through this week. Your job meets the handful of exits it draws, in your countries, against one target. Rotation policy and freshness move that outcome far more than the headline total.
Why a cheap address is often a used one
A shared address arrives with a history you did not create and cannot see. For read-only work it rarely matters. For anything that keeps a session, it is the most common cause of unexplained failure.
The comparison, honestly framed
Here are the comparisons that survive contact with a real workload:
| Question to ask | Geonode (old list host) | HProxy |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | Not verified by us, read their page | From $0.44/GB, pay as you go |
| Does unused balance expire? | Their terms page answers this | Never |
| Minimum commitment | Worth confirming in writing before you commit | None |
| Identity checks | Read their current terms | Card orders are screened, and verification is sometimes requested |
| Targeting | Worth confirming in writing before you commit | Country, city and ISP |
| Free way to evaluate | Read their current terms | Free proxy list and proxy checker |
Treat the right-hand column as a claim by an interested party, because it is one. Every line in it is checkable on our own pages and in our own terms.
What to do instead of reading more comparisons
The steps below take about ten minutes and settle the question properly.
- Fund both accounts with the least money each will accept, and note what that minimum was, because it is part of the comparison.
- Aim both at the page that matters to you rather than a test endpoint, and keep every other variable fixed.
- Record the success rate and the data consumed for the identical batch on each side.
- Check some of the addresses yourself for country, ASN and type before you trust the label on the plan.
- Keep the winner, and repeat the whole thing quarterly, because pools age.
The rest of the shortlist
Buyers comparing this name usually have two or three of these open in other tabs:
- clarketm proxy-list (GitHub) alternatives
- DidSoft alternatives
- Fauvet alternatives
- Free Proxy alternatives
- Free Proxy List alternatives
- Freeproxy alternatives
What we sell, stated plainly
If you want our side of it: $0.44 per GB for residential, pay as you go, nothing expires, and the free tools stay free. We would rather you measured than believed us, which is why the test comes before this paragraph rather than after it.
