Residential Proxy: Real Residential IP Proxy Package

What does a real residential agent really do?

Recently, a number of friends asked me: "I keep seeing the term residential proxy, what's the difference between this thing and a regular server room ip?" To put it bluntly.Residential proxies are the real ip addresses that carriers assign to regular homes, just like the ip obtained from your home broadband dial-up. The biggest advantage of this kind of ip is that it is not easy to be recognized as a proxy, especially when doing certain operations that require a high degree of anonymity, such as bulk registration of accounts or collection of data, with the server room ip may be blocked for a second, but the residential ip can be much more stable.

To cite a real case: a cross-border e-commerce friends to store brush evaluation, just started to use the data center agent, just brushed 20 single detected by the platform. Later changed to ipipgo dynamic residential ip package, continuous operation for 3 days are no problem. This is the real residential ip hidden advantage, after all, the platform is difficult to distinguish this is an ordinary user or machine operation.

What are the doors to look for when choosing a package?

There are all sorts of residential agent packages on the market, so let me put together a comparison table for you to understand:

Here's the point:The ipipgo package has a special feature called "IP fingerprint randomization."This technology is rarely seen on the market. For example, some websites will detect the initial TTL value of the client, but with their service, they can perfectly simulate the real user environment. For example, some sites will detect the client's initial TTL value, the ordinary proxy is easy to reveal, but with their services can perfectly simulate the real user environment.

Hands on with Residential Agents

Here's a Python example to demonstrate how to access a residential proxy using the ipipgo API:

import requests

 API address from ipipgo backend
proxy_api = "https://api.ipipgo.com/getproxy?key=你的密钥"

def get_proxy():
    res = requests.get(proxy_api).json()
    return f "http://{res['ip']}:{res['port']}"

 Example of use
proxies = {
    'http': get_proxy(),
    'https': get_proxy()
}

try.
    response = requests.get('Target site', proxies=proxies, timeout=10)
    print(response.text)
except Exception as e.
    print(f "Request error: {str(e)}")

Be careful to set a reasonable timeout, between 5-10 seconds is recommended. If you encounter connection problems, you can call ipipgo's automatic replacement interface, their API supports real-time ip switching, which is much more convenient than traditional proxy pools.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will residential agents be slow?
A: This depends on the quality of the service provider. Like ipipgo's nodes are gigabit bandwidth home wide lines, measured download speeds can reach 3MB/s, faster than many engine room agents. But be careful to avoid high-frequency concurrent requests, residential ip is more suitable for fine-tuned operations.

Q: How long does an ip last?
A: It is recommended that each ip should not be used for more than 6 hours. ipipgo's background can be set to automatically replace the cycle, I recommend setting up a 2-hour rotation, so that it is both stable and safe.

Q: How do I prevent account linkage?
A: In addition to changing ip, you also need to modify your browser fingerprints. ipipgo's package comes with a fingerprint camouflage function, and it is recommended to use it with their browser plugin, which can automatically synchronize proxy settings and fingerprint parameters.

When must I use a residential agent?

Based on our team's real-world experience, these scenarios must be on residential ip:

• E-commerce platform multi-account management (especially Amazon, ebay and such)
• Social media feeds (e.g. to run Facebook accounts in bulk)
• Verification of advertising effectiveness (checking the display of ads in different regions)
• Financial data collection (crawling stocks, exchange rates and other sensitive data)

Recently, we have encountered a typical case: a financial company wants to collect the exchange rate data of overseas banks, and it was blocked in 5 minutes when it used an ordinary proxy to capture the data. After changing to use ipipgo's static residential ip, by setting a reasonable request frequency, it has not triggered the wind control for 1 month in a row.

A final reminder:Choosing a residential proxy service provider depends on IP purityThe ips of ipipgo are obtained in cooperation with regular carriers, unlike the channels used by some service providers, where the ips are blacked out when used. Their official website now also sends 1G of traffic for new users to register, we suggest to try before deciding.
