There are many reasons why people want to use public proxy servers, such as accessing external websites, allowing anonymous web surfing, or speeding up Internet connection. For more details, you can visit my post on Why Should You Bother About Proxy.

The good news is many of public proxy servers are free. However, the life span of a proxy site is relatively short, it is often blocked quickly by some censor programs. Therefore, you may want to get a list of fresh proxies regularly.

How can you get a free public proxy list? You may check the following places:

Tech-Faq.com

If you need some fresh proxies on the daily basis, Tech-Faq.com is the first place to go. It usually has 50-100 new proxy servers listed everyday. Plus it provides you some helpful information such as site speed, clicks, and age.

Proxy.org

Proxy.org is often viewed as the flagship of proxy industry. It maintains a largest list of free public proxy servers. The total number is over 33,000. Moreover, you can even sort them by Country, Software, Hosting, or IP Address.

Online Proxy Groups

You can just search the keyword “Proxy” on Google Groups or Yahoo Groups. It will return you plenty of groups that provide public proxy list. Then you may join one with big member base and frequent update, or choose to receive an daily email for fresh proxies.

Social Networks

Many proxy server owners use social networks to promote their sites. So you often find proxies listed on Facebook Group or MySpace Bulletin. Moreover, you can follow the daily new proxy list on Twitter.

Proxy Script Sites

Most of public proxy servers are powered by free proxy scripts such as Glype or Zelune. On their websites, you can also get a list of free proxies. For example, you can find Glype proxy sites here.
