Skip the dead lists.

Our free proxy list re-checks every exit every few minutes across 100+ countries, with a live last-checked time, so you copy IPs that worked moments ago, not a stale text dump.

The useful thing to know about Paiddomains is not why it ended, which nobody outside the company can honestly tell you, but when it stopped and what you should do about the money or the traffic you had with it.

The date it stopped

We tried three routes to it on 9 September 2026 and all three failed (ENOTFOUND). Nothing is listening.

4 working snapshots exist, ending November 2019. Nothing usable was archived after that month.

What the last capture shows

The final good capture, November 2019, carried the title "Website Proxy Coming". The banner line read "Website Proxy".

Preserved copy has one advantage over a live page: it cannot be edited after the fact. What it shows is the promise, not the product.

What it looked like while it traded

The archive first captured a working page in March 2019.

None of it is a verdict on quality. It is the shape of a business that existed, which is worth establishing before anything else, because this market also contains names that never traded at all.

The rest of the trail

We also track the same brand at paiddomains.ga, paiddomains.gq, paiddomains.ml, paiddomains.tk. Where a shutdown leaves sibling domains behind, they are worth checking before assuming everything stopped.

The honest limit here: we can show you the ending and not the reason for it. Anyone publishing a confident explanation of a small provider's shutdown is usually repeating a forum rumour, and we would rather leave the gap visible.

The rest of the graveyard

Frequently asked questions

Is Paiddomains really gone?
We re-checked the domain on 9 September 2026 over https, www and plain http. Nothing answered on any of them. That is evidence of a shutdown rather than proof of one, and it is the strongest evidence the public web offers.
What happened to Paiddomains?
We do not know, and we will not guess in public. The record shows when the site stopped being captured and that it no longer answers. It says nothing about the reason, and every confident explanation of a small provider's shutdown that we have read traces back to a forum rumour.
What should I use instead of Paiddomains?
Start from a list that shows when each entry was last verified. Ours is re-checked every few minutes. Whatever you use, open the target site through it once before you rely on it, because a free proxy that worked this morning may be blocked by lunchtime.
