What can a proxy IP really do for you? These are some scenarios you may not have thought of
Brothers engaged in data collection understand that the site anti-climbing more and more ruthless. Last week I helped a friend to catch the price of an e-commerce platform, the local IP just checked 20 times on the seal, this time if there is a reliable proxy pool, directly switch IP can then work. Like ipipgo's dynamic residential package, 7 more than 1 G flow, do small and medium-sized crawler project especially cost-effective.
Overseas market friends have to pay attention to, some countries will block access to foreign websites. Last month, a Brazilian e-commerce customer used our cross-border line to collect local commodity data. Here is a reminder that the choice of agent depends on the specific business needs, we will teach you how to pick.
Three Tips for Choosing the Right Proxy Service Provider
First look at protocol support: Now the mainstream are HTTP/HTTPS/Socks5 three-piece suite, but some special business may need to customize the protocol. For example, if you are doing APP data capture, you have to check whether socks5 protocol is supported.
Second comparison of the quality of resourcesThe first thing you need to do is to look at the number of countries and focus on the purity of the IPs. Previously, some people bought a garbage proxy on the cheap, and as a result, 80%IP were all blacked out by the target website. Like ipipgo's static residential package, although 35 dollars an IP, but are real home broadband, suitable for long-term number of such fine operation.
Third Trial Experience: A really good proxy should be like turning on a tap. Take our customer case say, there is a do SEO monitoring team, with API interface 10 minutes to access 2000 IP, code example is about this:
import requests
proxies = {
'http': 'http://username:password@gateway.ipipgo.com:9020',
'https': 'http://username:password@gateway.ipipgo.com:9020'
}
response = requests.get('destination URL', proxies=proxies)
What makes ipipgo beatable? You can't find these details anywhere else.
Recently, many customers asked dynamic residential and enterprise version of the difference, here to tell the truth: the enterprise version of the line is a business wide, more than 9 yuan 1G package, suitable for large projects that require high concurrency. There is a price comparison platform customers, with this package to achieve an average daily request of 500,000 times do not fall off the chain.
Plus an exclusive feature - TK dedicated line. As friends who do overseas short video data know, some contents have very strict regional restrictions. Last month, we helped an MCN organization to use this dedicated line to stably collect popular video data from 6 countries, and the success rate was directly pulled to 92%.
A must-see guide to avoiding the pitfalls for beginners
Q: What can I do about slow proxy IPs?
A: First check the agreement is not right, https site do not use http proxy. If it is still slow, find customer service to change the line, ipipgo support within 20 minutes to respond to line adjustments!
Q: What should I do if I always encounter CAPTCHA?
A: This situation is recommended on the static residential IP, although the unit price is higher, but with the fingerprint browser can simulate the behavior of real people. There is a customer who does account management and uses this method to press the probability of triggering CAPTCHA from 70% to 15%.
Q: How do I choose between different packages?
A: Give a universal formula:
- Short-term crawlers → Dynamic Standard
- Long-term number keeping → static residence
- Enterprise Program → Dynamic Enterprise Edition
If you are really not sure, their technical customer service can do free program diagnosis.
These shenanigans will make your agency fee worth it.
Finally, I would like to share a money-saving trick: if you do data collection, you can set up IP reuse strategy. For example, you can set the interval of 30 minutes between the use of each IP, so that one IP can be used as five. A customer doing public opinion monitoring used this method to cut the proxy cost by 60%.
And here's a cold one - ipipgo's API supports accurate extraction by region + carrier. For example, as long as the Vodafone residential IP in London, which is particularly useful when doing localized data validation. The last time I helped a client to do UK real estate data collection, the collection efficiency was directly doubled with this feature.
To say a thousand words, the choice of agent is like looking for a partner, the most important thing is to be suitable. Don't just compare prices, look at the long-term stability and after-sales service. After all, the data project to get half of the chain, the loss of more than that agency fee. Have questions directly to the official website to find online customer service, reply speed than a treasure store much faster.
