The cost to change IP online

It doesn't have to be expensive to change IP online. Depending on what your particular needs are for surfing anonymously, there are some different ways to save money.  Here are some price ranges for you to get an approximate idea of how much its going to cost you.  You can choose a way that fits you.FreeUsing open proxies is a free way to browse anonymously.  Though some sites call it "masking" your IP address instead of "changing" it, it still falls under the head of anonymous surfing.  The reason is that instead of making direct contact to website servers, you have a proxy make requests for you.  Open proxies are simple to set up with your current browser, and free lists exist all over the place.  Just make sure you don't do any money-related transactions through these, because you might be putting yourself at risk for identity theftOne Time FeeThere are some software companies that offer software to look for these "open proxies" I mentioned earlier.  Though the techniques are similar, some types of this kind of software may provide you with a browser of their own.  They may also require that you use your own browser, but the software has been developed to find and organize open proxies so you can surf anonymously more efficiently.Monthly Fee $5-$8 USD per monthThere are also some proxy services available. These services own their own servers, and provide support and maintenance for the IP addresses and proxy connections you use.  By using this kind of service, you eliminate a lot of the risk involved in open proxies, get faster connections with better bandwidth, and even have support if anything goes wrong.Monthly Fee $6-$20 USD per monthOf course the most expensive is going to have the most features, and best results.  A virtual private network is not a proxy, but it still allows you to change IP online.  With a VPN you add layers of encryption and tunneling to ensure your anonymity and safety in communications withe the VPN server across seas and the websites that you visit.  An actual change of IP also means that you'll get access to more sites. Server location, reliability, and quality of support will vary, and price will often reflect this (but not always!).
