http proxy pay-per-flow: HTTP proxy pay-per-flow billing packages, flexible cost control

This is probably the most cost-effective way to use proxies.

Anyone who has worked with web crawlers knows that proxy IPs are like eating at a buffet - paying by the volume is the real deal. Traditional monthly packages are like forcing you to buy a whole cow, but in reality you may only drink a bowl of beef soup. Our ipipgo recently launched a traffic billing model, like a faucet installed a smart water meter, how much to use how much to count.

To give a real scenario: an e-commerce team to do competitor price monitoring, daily peak capture 2 hours, the actual monthly usage of about 80GB. according to the traditional monthly price to spend thousands of dollars, change to flow billing directly cut to 600 or so. Save enough money to buy two boxes of Red Bull for programmers to refresh.

 Example Traffic Monitoring Script (Python)
import requests
from datetime import datetime

def check_usage(api_key): url = "": url = "api_key".
    url = "https://api.ipipgo.com/usage"
    headers = {"Authorization": f "Bearer {api_key}"}
    response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
    return response.json()

current_time = datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M")
if __name__ == "__main__".
    print(f"[{current_time}] Used traffic this month: {check_usage('your API key')['data']}GB")

Choosing a package is like ordering milk tea

Don't look at all the traffic billing, different services have to pick different "sugar levels". We've put together a silly comparison table:

Special mention of static residential packages, although the unit price looks high, but suitable for long-term "lurking" business. For example, there is an overseas questionnaire research customer, with a fixed IP can avoid frequent changes lead to account anomalies, and actually save more cost of raising the number.

Four guides to pitfall prevention

1. Traffic black hole warning: Remember to put a traffic monitor in your code, just like driving a car and watching the gas gauge. We have encountered a customer script bug, a night run 300GB of the tragic case!

2. IP rotation before it's too lateThe IP address is not to be blocked before changing the IP address, it is recommended to set the success rate lower than 80% automatic switching. There is a team of recruitment data capture, set up automatic switching efficiency to improve 40%

3. Don't be an iron chicken.The time to use a static IP do not save, a cross-border e-commerce friends cheap with dynamic IP login store, the results triggered the wind control loss of a lot!

4. Packages should be mixed and matched: Use the standard package for high-traffic hours, and cut to the enterprise package for daily monitoring, just like turning on the lights during the day and turning off the lights at night.

QA First Aid Kit

Q: Will I be disconnected if I use too much traffic?
A: No! Our system supports automatic stacking, just like a cell phone traffic package. However, it is recommended to set up a usage reminder, and set a threshold in the console - Usage Alert.

Q: What should I do if my IP suddenly lapses in large numbers?
A: First check the request header settings, it is likely that the User-Agent is exposed. If you can't figure it out, you can call the technical support hotline, we have 24-hour on-duty lion!

Q: What's the best way to get the best deal?
A: Remember this mnemonic: a small amount of loose use to choose standard, stable just need on the enterprise, special scenarios with customized. If you are not sure, you can find customer service to do 1v1 program, free diagnostic flow bill!

Finally nagging sentence: proxy IP is a tool is not magic, with ipipgo also need to comply with the rules of the site. We have customers to use the traffic package cheaper than the monthly subscription, the secret is six words ---.Plan and adjust. Now sign up for 5GB of experience traffic, enough for you to test it for half a month (don't say I said that).
