当代理IP遇上测试:小白也能看懂的避坑指南
最近被好几个做跨境电商的老铁问懵了:”为啥我用的代理IP总掉线?”、”测到底看哪些指标?”今天咱就拿ipipgo的24小时试用通道当例子,手把手教大家怎么选到靠谱代理IP。
Why does your proxy IP always lag?
Many people think that buying a proxy IP can be all right, but the result is to use the card into the PPT. here is a misunderstanding to be broken:IP存活时间和网络是两码事. It's like when you buy a new car (IP), but the roads are bad (network quality), and you can't drive it as fast as usual.
One of the features of ipipgo's residential IP pool is that their IPs are pulled from real home broadband. To put it this way, it's like your neighbor's WiFi, which naturally has a "human touch" and is less likely to be blocked by target websites as bots. However, the actual speed of each IP depends on the local network infrastructure.
The right way to open the free trial channel
There is a "" entrance (officially called the trial channel) in the upper right corner of the ipipgo website, which requires a cell phone number to register. Here is the key point:Each trial will give 5 IPs from different regions, it is recommended to pick the three areas you need most for your business and randomize the remaining two so that you can measure the true level.
Test found a tip: 9:00 in the morning to update the IP pool to go to the trial, get the IP quality is better. Because at this time many European and American users have just woken up, home broadband utilization is low, the network is smoother.
测试的土味操作法
Don't be fooled by the jargon, and I'll teach you two grounding tests:
1. Sandwich test method:
Ping three times in a row and take the middle value. For example, test a US IP:
| Number of tests | (ms) |
|---|---|
| number one | 220 |
| number two | 198 |
| third | 205 |
这个IP的合理应该是205ms左右,第一次可能因为路由初始化有误差。
2. Web page loaded for visual observation:
When you open a target website with a proxy IP, if you can load a picture within three seconds, you will pass the test. For example, when testing Japanese IPs, if you can see Hatsune Miku's hair when you load the anime website, the IP will be stable.
The real test report is open to the public
Take ipipgo three typical areas and do real world testing (data is from yesterday's peak test):
| as suffix city name, means prefecture or county (area administered by a prefecture level city or county level city) | 平均 | packet loss | Web page loading |
|---|---|---|---|
| California, USA | 210ms | 0.2% | 2.8 seconds |
| Tokyo, Japan | 95ms | 0.1% | 1.5 seconds |
| Frankfurt, Germany | 280ms | 0.5% | 3.2 seconds |
See what I mean?Physical distance is not the only factor, Japan is close to us, but ipipgo uses residential IPs from small local carriers in Germany, and the speeds are rather faster than commercial IPs in some of the big cities.
QA time: the newbie must see five consecutive questions
Q: Can I use the trial IP for serious business?
A: ipipgo's trial IP and official channel quality is the same, but we recommend that the business volume of the old iron or go to the official channel, the trial IP will be forced to change every 6 hours.
Q:低就代表IP质量好吗?
A: Not necessarily! It remains to be seenIP purity。有些低IP可能被多家用户轮着用,容易被封。ipipgo的住宅IP都是独享通道,这个在他们技术白皮书里写过。
Q:Why is it fast in the test but laggy in the official use?
A: You may have hit a late network peak. It is recommended to set up the network in9-11 a.m. local timeDo the test, this time period best reflects the network speed in real business scenarios.
Q: How can I tell if it's a true residential IP?
A: In ipipgo's control panel, there is an "IP Traceability" function, which can find out the ASN number of the IP. The ASN for residential IPs is usually the local telecom operator, while commercial IPs show the data center number.
Q: What tools do I need to prepare for testing?
A: In addition to ipipgo's own speed measurement tool, it is recommended to match the super ping tool of the webmaster's house, which can simultaneously detect the access situation of 30 nodes in China.
Finally, a nagging word: selecting proxy IP is like looking for a partner, you can not just look at the surface data. ipipgo's residential IP library is automatically updated weekly with 8% or so IP address, this update strategy not only to ensure that the IP freshness, but also will not be changed frequently to affect the stability of the business. If you want to know more about the doorway, it is recommended that you go to the official website and test it in person, anyway, the trial does not cost money, right?
