Private Proxy IP: Exclusive Proxy IP for Personal Use

What the heck is a private proxy IP anyway?

Recently, some friends have been asking me if the private proxy IPs mentioned on the Internet are the same thing as your home router. Let's put it this way, a private proxy IP is just like yourUnique and exclusive network accessThe private proxy IP is different from the public proxy that shares the IP in a "compound" style. Unlike the public proxies that share IPs in a "compound" style, the private proxy IPs are yours alone from the moment you activate them, as if you were given a dedicated lane on a crowded morning rush hour road.

Let's take a real example: a friend who is an e-commerce company, before using a free agent always encountered account blocking. Later changed ipipgo's private agent, more than half a year and no problem. Why? Because the exclusive IP will not be abused by other people involved, just like their own home towels must be cleaner than the public bathroom.

What practical troubles does this thing solve?

According to our ipipgo backend statistics, users mainly use private proxy IPs to do these things:

A special reminder is that many people ignore the IP issue when registering accounts. For example, registering 10 social media accounts with the same IP results in the platform determining that the bots are registering in bulk.I'm going to shut them all down.The problem is that you have to use a private proxy for ipipgo. At this point if you use ipipgo's private proxy with separate IPs for each account, the probability of something going wrong is cut right in half.

How to use ipipgo's private proxy? Hands on instruction

Don't be intimidated by the technical jargon, the operation is actually simpler than connecting your cell phone to WiFi. Take Python, for example, and get it done in three steps:

import requests

proxies = {
    'http': 'http://用户名:密码@proxy.ipipgo.com:端口号',
    'https': 'http://用户名:密码@proxy.ipipgo.com:端口号'
}

response = requests.get('destination URL', proxies=proxies)
print(response.text)

Watch out for a few easy places to plant your head:

1. 密码里带特殊符号记得用百分号转义（比如@要写成%40）
2. Each request should ideally be separated by 2-3 seconds, too frequent to be easily recognized
3. It is recommended to work with browser plug-ins (e.g. SwitchyOmega) to manage different IPs.

Why do you recommend ipipgo, you can't beat this!

There are so many proxy service providers on the market, but if you have used them, you know where the gap is. Last month, I helped a client test five service providers, and ipipgo won in three key indicators:

1. IP survival timeThe average is 72 hours, but others don't last more than 24 hours.
2. Connection speed: Latency is controlled within 200ms, no lag when you brush the webpage.
3. After-sales response: technical customer service will reply within 10 minutes if there is a problem.

What surprised me the most was theirIP recovery mechanism. For example, if you buy 10 IPs, 3 of them can not be used, you can return the resource pool for other available IPs, this trick at least helped our team to save 30% cost.

A must-see QA session for the little guy

Q: How much more expensive is a private agent than a shared agent?
A: Take ipipgo for example, the price of an exclusive IP is about 3 times that of a shared one, but considering account security and stability, it is more cost-effective to use it for a long time instead!

Q: How long does an IP last?
A: This depends on the specific business scenario. If it is a low-frequency use (such as logging in once a week), it is recommended to choose the dynamic IP package; high-frequency use (such as crawlers) choose a fixed IP is more stable!

Q: How can I change my IP quickly if I am blocked?
A: ipipgo has a self-service replacement function in the background, and after the blocked IP submits a work order, a new IP will be replenished to the account within 2 hours!

Finally said a heartfelt: choose a proxy IP with the object like, figure a cheap find unreliable, the final account was blocked, data leakage, cry can not come. Professional things or to ipipgo this kind of veteran service providers, expensive is expensive, but with a solid is not?
