Proxy Server Geolocation: Proxy Server Location Selection Guide

How to choose a geographic location for a proxy server? Just read this one

2. Physical distance effectsaccess speed
3. Some platforms detectIP Registry

Key point: don't think that just any foreign IP will do, be as precise as ordering takeout and choosing an address.

Second, different scenarios to choose the strategy

Scenario 1: Data Collection
Crawler brothers pay attention, the target site server in which to choose where. For example, to climb the Japanese Rakuten, prioritize the IP of Tokyo/Osaka's server room, do not make any Hokkaido IP to fill the number.

Scenario 2: Localization Testing
Testing the Mexican version of the app?Remember these three things:

- Never use an Argentine IP (time zones are different)

 Example of extracting Mexican IPs with the ipipgo API

url = "https://api.ipipgo.com/getproxy"
params = {
    "country": "mx", "type": "static",
    "type": "static", "count": 5
    "count": 5
}
response = requests.get(url, params=params)
