Leaving ProxyLine: the numbers side by side

Comparing a ProxyLine alternative? The published numbers, the questions their pricing page leaves open, and a ten minute test that beats every review.

Free proxies won't hold up here.

Shared datacenter IPs get flagged and dropped fast. When it has to hold, gaming, streaming, accounts, you need mobile and residential IPs that read as a real device, from $0.44/GB, pay as you go.

Residential proxies

This page exists because the search you ran has almost no honest results. Nearly every page ranking for "ProxyLine 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.

ProxyLine on the record

ProxyLine operates from proxyline.net. Our classification for them is proxy provider.

ProxyLine is not in our priced record, so nothing about their rate appears below. That gap is stated rather than filled, which is the only honest option available.

Their pricing page will answer three of the four questions that matter. Send an email for the fourth, which is usually whether blocked requests are billed, and keep the reply.

Longevity, on the public record

The domain was registered on 11 September 2018, through GoDaddy.com, LLC, which makes it about 7 years old. That record was read from the registry on 23 April 2026. The Internet Archive holds 20 snapshots of the site, the earliest from February 2002. The registry shows it renewed to 11 September 2035.

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.

The shape of their site

We crawled 87 pages of their site and found 1 blog page.

That mix tells you how the company sells. Heavy location pages mean a geography-led pitch, heavy blog means a search-led one, and a single pricing page usually means one simple offer or one sales call.

Signs of life

Our crawl of their site found 87 pages carrying a date. The oldest is from December 2018 and the newest from December 2018.

A site that has not been touched in a year is a signal, not a verdict. It can mean a stable product with nothing to announce, or a company that has stopped. The way to tell them apart is to ask them.

The demand around this name

The Keyword Planner puts brand demand at 10 a month: 10 a month for a review of them. Figures read from Google Keyword Planner on 9 September 2026.

Weighted towards people checking whether to trust it. A comparison that ignores that and opens with a pitch has misread the room.

The parts no marketing page answers

A pool total is not a promise

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.

Money you paid for and did not spend

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.

The rate behind the sales call

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.

Side by side, with the blanks left blank

The rows below are the ones that change what you pay and whether the job runs:

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.

  1. Start with the smallest purchase each vendor allows, so the test costs less than the decision it replaces.
  2. Use your own scraper and your own target. A benchmark against a neutral site measures nothing you will experience.
  3. Count how many requests returned what you wanted, and how much bandwidth each side spent doing it.
  4. Spot-check the exits. Confirm they are in the country you paid for and the connection type you were sold.
  5. Keep whichever pool won on your job. Re-run this whenever success rate drops or the bill moves.

Others in this market

Nearest alternatives by product shape rather than by who pays us, since nobody does:

Our side of it

What we offer is one account holding residential, ISP, mobile and datacenter, priced from $0.44 per GB on residential, with no tier to climb and no allocation to lose at month end. Whether that suits you depends on how steady your volume is.

Frequently asked questions

How do I compare two providers fairly?
Match the units first, because residential is billed per gigabyte, datacenter and ISP per address, and mobile per day or per port. Then compare the rate you can actually reach today rather than the volume tier behind a commitment. Finish by measuring the success rate on your own target, since a cheap request that fails costs more than a dearer one that works.
How is HProxy different?
The models differ more than the products do. HProxy is pay as you go from a balance you top up when you want, the balance does not expire, there is no subscription unless the optional discount suits you, and residential starts at $0.44 per GB with city and ISP targeting included. Whether that beats a tiered plan depends on your usage pattern, which a short test settles.
Do I have to talk to sales or sign a contract to switch?
Not with us. You can sign up, add funds and send traffic without a call, a minimum or a subscription. Whether another provider requires any of those is on their own pricing page and is worth reading, because a required commitment is part of the price even when it is not part of the rate.
How often should I re-test a provider?
Quarterly is a reasonable rhythm for most workloads, and immediately after a noticeable drop in success rate. Pools are rebuilt, suppliers change and detection improves, so a benchmark from last year describes a network that no longer exists.
Does a bigger pool mean better results?
No. Your job meets only the exits it draws, in the countries it needs, against one target's defences. Freshness and rotation policy move the outcome far more than the headline total, and pool totals across this market are counted generously and rarely audited.

Proxies that don't die mid-job

Residential, ISP, datacenter and mobile, verified by the same engine that runs tens of millions of checks. They read as a real device and hold up under load. Pay as you go, and your balance never expires. $0.44/GB is the 2,000 GB+ rate; a single gigabyte is $0.50/GB, with no minimum order.
