A VPN server is a virtual private network server. It allows you to set up a secured connection between the host and the client computer. In this manner, one can send confidential communications without fear of intercept, bypass a country's restrictions (such as not being able to see Netflix from Dubai), or otherwise use programs that are restricted.
As far as making money, I'm sure you can, because I pay $80 per year for my VPN back to the US. But you had better have good customer support. I am fairly computer literate, but I have to contact support on occasion. I'm sure others who are not so computer literate will not be able to do as much as I, and therefore would be using customer support more often.

quote: Curious -- how this can be
You do not connect directly to the internet. You connect to a server. I connect to the internet through the "etisalat" server here in the UAE. The only connection I make through etisalat is to StrongVPN, which is my VPN server. The communication through etisalat is encrypted. Etisalat has no control over any of my data, as it has no way to "see" what I send.
Therefore, when I connect to netflix, they don't see my etisalat IP address. They see my StrongVPN address, which I recently changed from NY to Washington, DC. If I wanted a faster connection, I would select a different VPN server physically closer to Dubai, but then I would not have a US IP address, and therefore could not get Netflix, which is the main reason I have the VPN.
But that's not the only reason I have the VPN. The UAE has filters that you don't have in the US. I saw a link to Michele Malkin - a pundit notorious for posting anti-jihad messages - but got the "hand" that says it is a prescribed website. I don't like censorship. I should be able to read anything and make my own decisions.
Anyway, with my VPN, I can go to any website. Just for the record, some of the UAE blocks are on "warez" servers and other virus-prone sites, so they aren't all bad, but I keep a good anti-virus, and don't download anything that might be infected. Kaspersky stops the script-loaded malware, so I'm fairly certain I'm as safe as can be reasonably be expected.
quote: a hosting account is probably all that's needed, not a VPN account.
Not necessarily. If he's in China, then he may need a VPN to get around their restrictions. Much of the commerce here in the UAE is controlled through the government. Now, I don't think that commercial websites are controlled, but if you try to sell something they think should not be sold - let's just say "guns and ammunition" for argument's sake - then they would probably shut you down.
With a VPN, I could open the host site anywhere I could get a VPN server, and thereby abide by their laws, not by the laws where I'm physically located.

I notice no difference in speed, or if anything a minor difference. The main delay is sending everything via the US from the Middle East. I would guess my latency runs to enough to discourage realtime gaming, but since I don't do that, I really have no idea.
I think the encryption and decryption are done at my end (GHz speed) and at the server's end (GHz speed) so the transmission times are still the dominant variable.
I've been very happy with both the performance and support from StrongVPN. I'd recommend them to others, and from me, recommendations are few and far between.

Virtual Private Network is a method of stimulating a private network which operates on a large network. It is nothing but creating smaller sub-networks on the existing bigger networks. The main purpose of this network is to provide a secure method for connecting in a private network from network locations.

VPN is an anonimity tool that helps to change your IP address and encrypt your data. Another well-known way to keep your data in safe is to use a proxy server. This is a computer that acts between your computer and the Internet, and VPN is a program that can be installed on your PC. If someone is looking for a good service, I can recommend to take a look at https://buy.fineproxy.org/eng/. These guys offer a wide range of proxy packages and a VPN server. Hope it helps!

As far as I know, VPN helps only to change your IP address. There are many resources on the Internet, which are limited, and it’s difficult to get there without VPN. I myself know a lot of such sites. This is where VPN is needed, it is also used for anonymity. I take a VPN here Veepn.com they have unlimited traffic and you can connect multiple devices at the same time.

A virtual private network extends a private network across a public network, and enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network.

I can tell you for sure that netflix is the best platform for entertainment for most people. Last year a lot of people started watching movies and TV series from there, recently I found out that I can not watch some TV shows and it upset me. It's good that I found TechEye reviewed Netflix VPNs and picked one of them!
