Proxy Server Trial: Free Test Proxy IP

I. Why do I need to try a proxy server?

When many friends first contact with proxy IP, they always think of buying the package directly. But just like buying clothes online to see the buyer's show, the proxy IP also has to firstfitting trialOnly then do you know if it fits. Some agents look at the parameters of the beautiful, the actual use of either can not connect, or slow to doubt life. In particular, the friends of the crawler most understand this pain - just run two minutes of the program, the IP will be the target site off the small black house.

Second, the hand-held white whoring test

Here's how to teach you twoZero-cost trial methodFirst, the browser manual test method: open Baidu search "local IP" to memorize the address, then open the browser settings - advanced - system - open the proxy settings, fill in the connection with the proxy IP and port. Browser manual test method: open Baidu search "local IP" write down the address, then open the browser settings - advanced - system - open the proxy settings, in the connection to fill in the test proxy IP and port. Refresh Baidu to see if there is any change in the IP displayed, and if the web page can be loaded normally, then it is a success.

 Python test script example (remember to install the requests library first)
import requests

proxy = {
    'http': 'http://12.34.56.78:8888',
    'https': 'http://12.34.56.78:8888'
}

try.
    resp = requests.get('http://httpbin.org/ip', proxies=proxy, timeout=5)
    print(f'Current proxy IP: {resp.json()["origin"]}')
except Exception as e.
    print('Proxy hung! Error message:', str(e))

Third, the selection of agents to look at these hard indicators

The test focuses on three pieces of data:

IV. Special advantages of ipipgo

There's a pretty solid feature of ipipgo that I've been using lately - theDynamic Trial Package. You get 500MB of traffic when you sign up and support http/https/socks5 protocols. Their exclusive IP pool is especially suitable for enterprise users who need long-term stable business, unlike some shared IPs which are always played by the former.

One detail is very sweet: in the user background can directly see the proxy IP'sHealth Status MonitoringThe red color indicates that the current node is congested, and the green color represents the smooth flow. The red color indicates that the current node is congested, and the green color represents smooth flow, which is much more intuitive than looking at the cold numbers. The last time I helped a friend do e-commerce multi-account management, is to rely on this function to avoid the peak of the nodes stuck.

V. Answers to high-frequency questions

Q: Why do free agents break so often?
A: Free proxies are mostly shared by users, just like public WiFi where anyone can connect. It is recommended to use ipipgo's exclusive package for important services, which is several grades higher in stability.

Q: It works fine in testing, but when I use it officially, something goes wrong?
A: Pay attention to the request frequency! Even if you use a high stash of proxies, if you send hundreds of requests in a minute, even the best IP can't carry it. It is recommended to cooperate with the random delay, simulating the rhythm of real human operation.

Q: How to solve the problem of slow proxy IP speed?
A：先换同地区的其他节点试试。比如做国内电商选浙江节点，做跨境电商用美国节点。ipipgo后台可以按地理位置筛选，还能测节点实时。

VI. Don't step on these potholes

I've seen the most outrageous case: some people fill the proxy IP to the antivirus software to update the proxy settings, the result is that all the traffic go through the proxy, burning traffic costs for nothing. Remember.Only let the software that needs a proxy go proxy，其他程序保持。

There is also a common misconception that all proxies can be used with the socks5 protocol. In fact, different protocols support different scenarios, for example, some crawler frameworks can only use http proxy. ipipgo protocol compatibility to do a more complete, encountered protocol problems you can find their technical support to configure the case.
