How to Set Up a Free Proxy (6 Steps)

Sign up for server space. If you already have a web server, you can skip this step. If you do not, you can sign up for either a free hosting account for limited bandwidth or a paid host for higher or unlimited bandwidth. Make sure you have FTP access to your hosting account so you can upload files to the server and that your server can run PHP. Either way, take note of your FTP user name and password before moving on.
Install an FTP program on your computer. Filezilla is the most popular free FTP program. It can be downloaded from Sourceforge.net. Follow the installation instructions for your computer. Make sure to download the right version for a Mac, Windows, or Linux computer.
Download PHProxy for free from Sourceforge. PHProxy is a free proxy server software package based in the PHP programming language. It is easy to install on any web server. Download the free installation package onto your desktop. You can test the software at phproxy.org.
Log in to your hosting account using Filezilla and navigate to your public_html directory. The public_html directory is where web pages are hosted on your server space. Choose one of your hosted domain folders and create a sub directory called '/proxy.' Doing so will install the program to yoursitename.com/proxy (replace yoursitename with your website's name).
Upload the entire PHProxy package into the /proxy folder on your server. Be sure to unzip the package and upload every file. Once the files are uploaded, use Filezilla to set the file permissions to 666, which will allow you to read the file from a web browser.
Go to yoursitename.com/proxy and you can use your proxy from any computer with Internet access. If you are concerned about other people using your proxy, you can change the directory name from /proxy.

How to Make My Own Web Video Streaming Service

Select your media. Deciding what you want to stream is important because it allows you to estimate the average file size and the number of files you’ll be able to stream simultaneously. Try selecting 20 videos with an average size of 20MB to start.
Build a streaming server rather than subscribe to a hosted service. You can use a second-hand PC with at least 4GB of RAM and a 2 GHz processor at minimum. Install a hard drive that runs at 7,200 rpm and offers at least 100GB of free space.
Install Windows Media Server on your streaming media server. You can download a free trial version and use it for up to six months. By that time, you should know whether you want to purchase streaming media software or go with a streaming service.
Upload your video files to your streaming server. Verify that the streaming media option for each video is enabled. Note all filenames and addresses for future website linkage. You’ll need to create a simple network to include your streaming file server and administrative PC. Remember to use a unique drive letter when naming your streaming drive.
Create your website or modify your existing site using thumbnail images for each video. Then link the thumbnails to the appropriate selections in your streaming video file bank on your server. Always use the complete network address in your links.
Upload your new or modified website to your Web hosting service and then test your streaming video service on a remote computer. You should be able to click on a thumbnail and see the linked video begin to stream across your screen in a few seconds.
