Hands on with curl to hide your real identity
Crawlers know that a lot of websites are nowKeeping an eye on user agents (UA) to check accountsThe first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty. Like going to the market to buy food, the stall owner to see you face will raise the price, the server to see the strange UA is also easy to block the IP. today we focus on how to use curl to play a good "face art", with ipipgo's proxy service, guaranteed to make the target site do not recognize you.
What exactly is UA testing preventing?
For example, an e-commerce site found that recently there was always a "Chrome 99″ visitor who scanned the prices of products 500 times an hour. That doesn't look like a real person! That's when they put thisWell-characterized UABlacklisted, along with the IP address used at the time.

Curl camouflage triple axe
Here are three practical tricks recommended to work better with ipipgo's proxy pool:
| manner | Operating Instructions | caveat |
|---|---|---|
| Random Dressup | Random selection of UA per request | Don't use a browser version that's too old |
| Scenario simulation | Matching UA by Device Type | Cell phone UA to carry resolution parameters |
| dynamic update (Internet) | Weekly updates to the UA library | Be aware of time zone differences |
Practical example (remember to replace it with your own ipipgo proxy)
curl -x http://user:pass@proxy.ipipgo.com:8080
-H "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/120.0.0.0 Safari/537.36"

Proxy IP's Double Insurance Role
Changing UA alone is like wearing a mask without a hat, use ipipgo's premium proxies to make it happen!dual protection::
- Automatic switching of exit IPs per request
- Built-in UA random generation module (this function has to be opened separately by customer service)
- Automatic filtering of flagged anomalous IP segments
Common Pitfalls QA
Q: Why do I still get blocked even though I set UA?
A: 80% of the IP did not change diligently, it is recommended to add ipipgo automatic rotation parameters in the curl command, every 5 minutes to cut the exit node.
Q: What should I be aware of for UA on mobile?
A: Remember to add the device resolution parameter, such asUA for iPhone 13 must carryWith screen parameters like 1080×2340, it's otherwise like playing basketball in a suit.
Q: Do free proxies work?
A: Never! Those public proxies have long been the major sites in the book, with ipipgo's exclusive IP pool is reliable, their family IP survival cycle than the peer 3 times longer.
Upgraded Play: Intelligent UA Strategy
Older drivers are using ipipgo'sSmart UA ModeThis feature automatically matches UA based on the target site type:
- Visit e-commerce sites with shopping apps for UA
- Switch to mobile browser UA when swiping video
- Automatic reduction of request frequency during the early morning hours
Finally, I would like to remind you that UA disguise is not a cure-all, and you have to cooperate with high-quality proxy IP in order to get twice the result with half the effort. Just like frying vegetables to master the fire, with ipipgo proxy service remember to adjust the switching frequency according to business scenarios, do not use an IP to the end of days.
