How to play the Sri Lankan agent? Locals teach you three tricks
Recently, I have received several questions from my friends about how to deal with local websites in Sri Lanka that always get stuck. Especially in the e-commerce, play the travel platform, often encountered slow loading web page or directly can not open. Here to give you a trick, use the right proxy IP can solve 90% of the problem.
Practical scenarios: why use Sri Lankan IPs
To give a real example, there was a guy in Colombo who made handmade soap and wanted to sell his goods on the biggest local e-commerce platform. As a result, when he registered his store with his home network, the platform always suspected that he was a foreign merchant. After switching to ipipgo's Sri Lankan residential IP, he passed the audit on the same day and now sells 3,000 units a month.
Python example (remember to replace it with your own account)
import requests
proxy = {
"http": "http://username:password@lk.ipipgo.com:3000",
"https": "http://username:password@lk.ipipgo.com:3000"
}
response = requests.get("https://本地电商网站", proxies=proxy)
print(response.text)
