Why do CAPTCHAs keep coming back to haunt you?
Recently, a lot of friends complained to me that the CAPTCHA pops up harder than the pop-up when crawling data. To put it bluntly, the anti-climbing mechanism of the website is through theIP access frequency + behavioral characteristicsto recognize the bot. When the same IP sends 20 requests in a row, the server immediately lights up red: "Something's wrong with this one! Bouncing captcha!"
How can a proxy IP help you to be "invisible"?
As an example, you're going to the grocery store to try it out:
- Use your own ID to go everyday → remembered by the store clerk (triggers captcha)
- Change clothes + wig every day → blend in with the crowd (proxy IP rotation)
Using ipipgo's proxy pool is like having thousands of "vests" that are randomly dressed for each request. Tested with dynamic residential IP, CAPTCHA trigger rate can be reduced to 1/5 of the original.
Hands-on Configuration Practice
import requests
from itertools import cycle
List of proxies from the ipipgo backend
proxies = [
"http://user:pass@192.168.1.1:8080",
"http://user:pass@192.168.1.2:8080"
]
proxy_pool = cycle(proxies)
for i in range(10): current_proxy = next(proxy_pool)
current_proxy = next(proxy_pool)
try: current_proxy = next(proxy_pool)
response = requests.get("destination url",
proxies={"http": current_proxy},
timeout=10
)
print(f "The {i+1}th request was successful, using IP:{current_proxy}")
except.
print("Current IP failed, automatically switching to the next one")
Focused Setting:
1. Change the IP address after using it up to 3 times.
2. Request intervals randomized at 2-5 seconds
3. Immediate IP switching when encountering CAPTCHA
Guide to avoiding the pit (QA session)
Q: Why do I still get CAPTCHA after using a proxy?
A: Check three points:
① IP purity (with ipipgo's exclusive IP pool)
② Whether the request header is changed randomly
③ Is the operation interval like a real person
Q: Which agent type is the most effective to choose?
| typology | Scenario |
|---|---|
| Residential Dynamic IP | High Frequency Data Acquisition |
| Server room static IP | Need to keep the session |
| Mobile IP | Contrary to the strict banning |
ipipgo has all three categories and recommends requesting a test pack to try them out first.
Why ipipgo?
I was helping a client do a stress test last week and triggered 17 CAPTCHAs in 1 hour with a certain proxy service. Switch to ipipgo'sIntelligent Routing SolutionAfter:
- IP survival time increased by 2.3 times
- Captcha Trigger Drop 82%
- Instead, it's faster to collect
Their IP pool is automatically replenished with fresh IPs every day, and theFail Retry + Auto Switchmechanism, which is particularly suitable for scenarios that require stable operation over a long period of time.
Finally, a nagging word: do not be cheap with free proxies, those IPs have long been blacklisted by the site. To really solve the problem, or have to use ipipgo this kind of professional service providers, after all, they have theIP Health Monitoring SystemThe IPs that have been flagged are always rejected.
