Who is using the HidemyAss VPN?
How is its performance?
Why is it offered free?

Those questions are enough for me to avoid it completely. I have no reason to hide and prefer to play fair with anything I do.

I use it for SEO, more specifically when building Tier 1 links to my websites as Google tracks the IPv4 and Location from where you are linking.

One of the best out there, tbh. Best thing about it is the built-in fully automated proxy rotation system.

It isn't offered free as far as I know.

Your clarification is useful. It is good that this VPN is legit.

I however do not know why you state that this VPN is not free; I installed a Chrome extension free of charge.

[walash]

Ok, you are only using their web proxy extension. The real software is paid as stated on their website.

Cheers.

Thanks for this clarification. So, is the extension I've installed useful in relation to masking my IP?

I use the premium service of the Hidemyass. It has some really good benefits. Especially when you are doing the SEO jobs or craiglist posting jobs. It can be handy especially during the time when your IP gets banned for most SEO tasks on Mturk or similar sites. I used it mostly for the craiglist posting. I wish to keep it as a handy add on for myself.

Aha. Do you then post on craigslist from a geo location other than the one you actually are at? I know this is off-topic; but how does this practice help your agenda?

[skysnap]

Yes. That's the reason. I usually get leads on other cities. Because craiglist has city specific software option. So for example you are in new york, then you can't access austin's craiglist. And say if you are web designer and want leads from that city, in such case you have to use VPN to access the site.

This name betrays this service provider; the name is a bit offensive. I thus await positive reviews from fellow FCers.

[skysnap]

Yes it is offensive but that does not affected their sales. Most of the people who are in need of VPN prefer their service over anything else. Because other VPN services are not that effective like HMA. Also the pricing for the service is really good. This is something that many other competitors can't have as of now.

I agree; the name does not necessarily reflect service quality.
What is the monthly price for HMA services?

[skysnap]

Just 10$. And the amount of benefit from them is just priceless. For example I can choose to use IP of specific country, city and it works. For example, for SEO task or craiglist submission, you can use IP of specific place. 9.99$ for month is defintiely the price i'd pay for such service. I like that service.
