Hands-on with UK IP Proxies
Recently, a small partner asked me to do cross-border e-commerce, always encountered the British site to block the account, engage in data collection is always triggered by the anti-crawler, this can be done? Hey, if you can have a British IP proxy at this time, the problem will be solved. Today, we will nag about this magic tool, focusing on our own use ofipipgoServices.
Why do I need a UK IP Proxy?
To cite a real case: last year, there is a sneaker buyer brother, using the domestic IP to log in to the British shopping site, the account was locked two or three days. Later, he changedipipgoThe UK residential IP, not only the account is stable, the success rate of grabbing the limited edition model has gone up by 60%. See here for the specific benefits:
Core three-piece set:
1. Web site anti-crawler mechanism when you are a real person
2. Local IPs are required for services in specific regions.
3. Multi-account management without crosstalk
The Doorway to Picking a UK IP Proxy
With so many agency services on the market, remember these three key points:
norm | pothole | ipipgo program |
---|---|---|
IP Type | Data center IPs are easily blocked | Residential/Equipment Room IP Hybrid Pool |
responsiveness | High latency affects efficiency | Node-wide <200ms |
Protocol Support | HTTP only support is not good | HTTP/Socks5 Dual Protocol |
I'd like to give a special shout-out toipipgoThe dynamic rotation function can automatically change IP when doing data collection, and it has been tested that it has not been blocked for 12 hours in a row.
Practical operation guide
Take the Python crawler, for example, with theipipgoof the UK IP proxy so configured:
import requests
proxies = {
'http': 'http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.co.uk:端口',
'https': 'http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.co.uk:端口'
}
response = requests.get('Target site', proxies=proxies, timeout=10)
print(response.status_code)
Note that you have to change the username and password to the one you used in theipipgoAuthentication information obtained in the background, different business scenarios remember to choose static or dynamic IP.

the right tool saves effort and leads better results
I've used 7 or 8 agencies and I've finally settled onipipgoJust because of those three points:
1. Customer service response faster than a delivery boy
2. IP pool weekly update 20%+
3. Costs can be billed on a volume basis without being a rip-off
Especially theirIP Quality InspectionFunction, docking can be free to test 50 IP before, this move is quite real. Recently in doing promotional activities, new users first month 30% off, the need for the old iron grasp woolgathering.
Finally remind: proxy IP is not a panacea, with a reasonable request frequency. Don't just brush data like crazy with the whole script, even the best IP can't carry so much. If you are not sure about the business scenarios, you should directly look foripipgoTechnical customer service to help you out with your program is much better than trying to figure it out on your own.
