Why is residential IP city-level positioning important?
In scenarios where precise positioning of network behavior is required, the city-level positioning capability of residential IPs directly affects the operational effect. For example, when certain local services need to verify the user's city, or when data collection requires statistics by city dimension, theReal residential IP address informationCan ensure the authenticity and reliability of the operation.
Traditional data center IP is easy to be identified and intercepted by target websites due to its fixed and centralized address attribution. And like ipipgo providesResidential IP resources from real home networksThe IPs cover more than 240 countries and regions around the world, and each IP carries city-level location information assigned by the operator, a native attribute that is the basis for accurate positioning.
City-level Positioning Accuracy Test Methods
We did three rounds of testing using ipipgo's residential IP service:
| test dimension | Test Tools | sample size | accuracy |
|---|---|---|---|
| IP Address Search | MaxMind database | 500 | 93.6% |
| Geolocation API | Google Maps API | 300 | 88.2% |
| Local Service Authentication | A platform for a city to limit purchases | 200 | 95% |
Three major factors affecting accuracy were identified in the tests:
- Carrier IP allocation strategy: Municipal roaming exists for some mobile network IPs
- Frequency of updates to the location database:: Possible delays in updating third-party databases
- Terminal device location privileges: Browser location features may override IP location
How to improve positioning accuracy
Through the ipipgo control panel'sCity FilterYou can quickly lock the IP of the target area. it is recommended to enable the following functions at the same time:

Frequently Asked Questions QA
Q: Why is there a bias in IP positioning in the same city?
A: Home broadband exists in the case of cross-area coverage, such as suburban IP may belong to neighboring urban areas. It is recommended to set the background settings in ipipgoGeographic radius screeningFunction.
Q: The city shown in the location database does not match the actual use?
A: This situation mostly occurs in the IP just completed the operator switch, it is recommended to prioritize the use of ipipgo labeled asStabilization cycle of more than 3 monthsof residential IP.
Q: How can I verify the true positioning effect of the IP?
A: Recommended by ipipgoDual Channel Authentication ServiceThe user manual contains detailed instructions on how to do this in Chapter 6.
