During the cold war, Russia/China and USA fought proxy wars, for example in Korea or Vietnam (China supporting the communist Viets, USA fighting with the whatever, liberal Viets or smthg). USA and China didn't fight directly, but used smaller countries as proxies to avoid direct confrontation for a number of reasons such as USA kicking China's ass.
Now your computer is China, the proxy is the communist Viets, and the USA is the internet.
1) You don't want to get blacklisted (get your ass kicked) or sandboxed, so you use proxy servers to send your spammy requests.
2) You want to create multiple accounts on say Facebook but FB only accepts like 5 accounts per IP so you want to simulate multiple IPs (ie. looks like you are from new location each time)
3) You want to hide your IP for some obscure reason.. although this is not exactly bulletproof.
That's the main reasons why you want to use proxies, now don't ask me how they work technically because I have no idea and I'm not interested, as long as they are working and I know how to use them, I don't need to know anymore.

^^This. For your question about where to get proxies. People share proxies daily in the proxy section.
For private proxies, we have a BST..erm ... a market for that as well here in BHW.
Private proxies are used only by you.
If you would like to bot social networks like facebook, tumblr, you need proxies.

proxies are the middle man between you and the internet, instead of connecting directly to the internet, using a proxy server makes it so a website cannot receive your direct ip address, the only information that a site will receive when using a private anonymous proxy is the proxy server information and not your information. you can use them when creating multiple accounts for the same site. and many many more uses.

You can read some of the stickies here to know about what proxies are 
​A proxy or proxy server is basically another computer which serves as a hub through which internet requests are processed. By connecting through one of these servers, your computer sends your requests to the proxy server which then processes your request and returns what you were wanting. In this way it serves as an intermediary between your home machine and the rest of the computers on the internet. Proxies are used for a number of reasons such as to filter web content, to go around restrictions such as parental blocks, to screen downloads and uploads and to provide anonymity when surfing the internet.

no this is not a high price, is a very low price ....
IPs prices are on acquisition from $1 on all providers, and you have to think that there are costs with the servers bandwidth etc ...
also i really do not understand how some proxy providers are selling dedicated proxies with less then $1 / proxy ... A reasonable explanation is that they are selling shared proxies and you know that those are dedicated
cause there is no way in this world as a client to see what type of private proxies you have ... shared or dedicated !gagenorton

So, what is the magic number for the amount of proxies to purchase? I'm new and have scrapebox and SEDemon and have looked at several proxy services. They sell them in increments like 2, 5 , 10, 50 and so on. If I'm marketing up to 20 sites using this software, how many proxies do I need?

Start with 2 , if you find them insufficient buy more . Demand and supply fundamental

Ok, cool. Thanks. I know that there are tons of proxy services throughout the forum, but if anyone has any recommendations, I'd greatly appreciate it. Cheers.

For higher anonymity buy and use a VPN ... In this way your ISP is unable to trace you and see what sites are you visiting etc, because the connection from your PC and the VPN server is encrypted ... if you are using a proxy they are able to view what websites are you visiting etc ...

the proxies at $0.50 each/month are 100% shared proxies, depends on what proxies do you need ...
They can be good, they can be not, I recommend to do a search here on BHW for proxies, so follow this link: http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackhat-seo/f112-proxies-sale/
