What exactly is the use of covert proxies? Let's take a grounded example
Doing e-commerce friends recently complained to me, said the platform always check their account association, a catch. Later, they changedResidential IP ProxyThe problem was solved by disguising the login environment as a normal home network. This proxy is like a cloak of invisibility for the computer, the server sees the same IP address as a normal home user.No difference at all.
Let's take a specific scenario: a company has 20 customer service agents who need to log in to the backend system at the same time. If you use the office network, the IP address of all accounts is the same segment, the system can immediately recognize the anomaly. At this time, if each customer service are hanging a different residential proxy IP, the system will be considered to be 20 different families in the operation, the risk index directly cut.
Hands-on guide to choosing the right proxy service provider
There are all kinds of agency services on the market, remember these threeGuide to avoiding the pit::
1. Look at the type of IP: Data center IP = dormitory Residential IP = commercial house
2. look at the level of anonymity: transparent proxy = naked high hidden proxy = stealthy
3. Look at the protocol support: HTTP/S is enough but SOCKS5 is more flexible.
We have to introduce our own products hereipipgoThe dynamic residential IP pool covers 200+ cities. There is a customer doing local life service who needs to monitor merchant data in 30 cities at the same time, using ourCity Positioning FunctionsDirect Setup:
curl --proxy zt.ipipgo.com:8000 --proxy-user account:password https://目标网站
Configuration tips that even a novice can get started with
Don't be intimidated by the technical jargon, configuring an agent is actually easier than installing a mobile app. Take the Python crawler as an example:
import requests
proxies = {
'http': 'http://账号:密码@zt.ipipgo.com:8000',
'https': 'http://账号:密码@zt.ipipgo.com:8000'
}
response = requests.get('destination URL', proxies=proxies, timeout=10)
Be careful to openIP auto-rotationSwitch, this function in ipipgo background can be set with one click. There is a customer who does price comparison, after setting up automatic IP switch every minute, the success rate of data collection soared from 48% to 93%.

It's all for naught if you don't pay attention to these details
1. IP Survival TimeDon't exceed 6 hours, residential users won't be online 24/7
2. Frequency control of visitsNo more than 3 requests per secondImitation of a real person.
3. Browser fingerprints should be replaced with the recommended ipipgoFingerprint Browser Integration Pack
Recently, we encountered a typical case: a financial company used a proxy to do data collection, although the IP changed, but the browser fingerprints did not change, and the result was detected by the anti-crawling system. Later, with our fingerprint modification program, the collection efficiency was directly doubled.
At the end of the day, a hidden agent is acamouflage game. It's important to wear the right clothes (with a residential IP), change your accent (clear your request head), and pay attention to your behavior (control your frequency). Get these details right and ipipgo's Dynamic Residential Proxy can be maximized.
