What exactly is the purpose of a Japanese proxy IP?
Recently, a lot of friends asked me for a Japanese proxy IP, saying that they want to automate the operation of the Japanese website. To cite a chestnut, there is a cross-border e-commerce buddies, their stores have to regularly update the Japanese Rakuten product information. Direct access to it, often encounter CAPTCHA not to mention that sometimes the IP is also blocked to death. At this time with the Japanese local proxy IP login, the system thought it was an ordinary user in the operation, the success rate directly doubled.
Another example is a friend who is doing data collection and wants to capture the latest quotes from Japanese real estate websites. Many sites set up geographical restrictions, with domestic IP simply can not open the page. At this time set a Japanese agent, you can immediately see the complete listing information and price trends.
Keep an eye on these points when choosing a proxy IP
There are many proxy service providers on the market, but there are truly not many reliable ones. According to my experience of stepping on pits over the years, I summarize these severalhard indicator::
| norm | passing line |
|---|---|
| IP purity | Unlabeled rate >95% |
| responsiveness | <200ms |
| Protocol Support | Support for HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS5 at least |
| IP Pool Size | Dynamic IP > 5000 |
Japanese nodes like ipipgo have measured latency around 150ms. They have aDynamic rotation mechanismParticularly practical, each request automatically switch to a different IP, a perfect solution to the problem of frequent access to be blocked.
Hands-on with ipipgo Proxy
Here is an example of how to access a Japanese website using a proxy in Python:
import requests
proxies = {
'http': 'http://username:password@jp.ipipgo.com:3128',
'https': 'http://username:password@jp.ipipgo.com:3128'
}
response = requests.get('https://www.rakuten.co.jp', proxies=proxies)
print(response.status_code)
Note that the username and password are replaced with the actual purchased account information. ipipgo's API documentation has more detailedautomatic retry mechanismConfigure it to automatically cut the IP and retry when it encounters a temporary ban, which is especially critical for programs that need to run for a long time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will I be found by the website if I use a Japanese proxy?
A: It depends on the quality of the proxy. Like ipipgo this high stash of proxies, the request header will be X-Forwarded-For these characteristics of the field to deal with the clean, pro-tested yahoo Japan, these big sites are not detected.
Q: Will I get stuck if I open multiple quests at the same time?
A: It is recommended to use theirMulti-threaded dedicated channelThe first time I did this, I was able to assign a separate IP to each thread, and last week I was helping a client with price monitoring, and I had 50 crawler processes running at the same time, and the bandwidth was 100Mbps without any dropouts.
Q: What should I do if my IP is suddenly unavailable?
A: ipipgo has real-time availability monitoring in the background, and abnormal IPs will be kicked out of the pool automatically. If you encounter special circumstances, their technical customer service response thief fast, the last 3:00 a.m. to mention the work order, 5 minutes to change the new IP segment.
Don't step on these potholes.
1. Don't buy a shared IP on the cheap, 9 out of 10 are flagged. Once I bought a cheap service for 5 dollars/month, and I was redirected to a verification page right after I connected to it.
2. pay attention to protocol matching, some old websites only support HTTP protocol, this time if you use SOCKS5 proxy instead of connecting!
3. Important operations must be openedIP whitelistingThe ipipgo backend can be bound to a specific IP to use the account, to prevent account theft!
Finally, a cold knowledge, many Japanese websites have a breakdown of the geographical location of the IP to the municipal level. ipipgo recently on the new independent IP pool of Osaka and Nagoya, do regionalized operations of friends can focus on trying this feature.
