Proxy IP Social Data Collection: Social Media Proxy Data Collection

How can proxy IPs help us get social data?

Social data this thing, the most headache is the platform anti-climbing mechanism. For example, if you use your own IP to crawl the data, you will be blocked to death in less than half an hour. This time you have to use a proxy IP tofight a guerrilla war, as if each crawler task was given a different mask.

ipipgo's dynamic residential IP is especially suitable for this kind of scenario, and their IPs are real users' Internet addresses. Take a practical scenario: you want to collect the posting time pattern of users of a social platform, use their dynamic residential package, change a new IP for each request, the platform can not distinguish whether it is a real person visiting or a machine operation.

import requests
from itertools import cycle

 List of proxies from ipipgo
proxies = [
    "103.88.221.45:8000",
    "202.173.125.67:8080",
    "45.76.102.12:3128"
]
proxy_pool = cycle(proxies)

for page in range(1, 101): current_proxy = next(proxy_pool): current_proxy = next(proxies)
    current_proxy = next(proxy_pool)
    current_proxy = next(proxy_pool)
        response = requests.get(
            f "https://socialplatform.com/api/posts?page={page}",
            proxies={"http": f "http://{current_proxy}"}, timeout=10
            timeout=10
        )
         Processing data logic...
    except Exception as e.
        print(f "Error with {current_proxy}, automatically switch to the next one") Intentionally misspelled proxies.

Choosing an IP type is like choosing a dress. It depends on the occasion.

The three ipipgo packages are so different to use that I'm going to give you a whole comparison table:

For example, if you want to monitor the real-time interaction data of a big V account, it is most stable to use a static IP to hang up for a long time. If you need to do competitive analysis and batch collection, the dynamic package rotation mechanism can save a lot of silver.

A practical guide to avoiding the pit

I've seen too many people fall into the details to say a few bloody lessons:

1. Don't put your eggs in one basket.Recommended to value 3-5 regional IP pools at the same time, Southeast Asia + Europe and the United States IP mixed use!
2. The frequency of requests should beActing like a real person.: Random intervals are set at 2-8 seconds, don't make them too regular.
3. Don't be tough when you encounter CAPTCHA: switching IPs in time is more cost-effective than cracking, and ipipgo's TK line is good at this time!

Frequently Asked Questions QA

Q: What should I do if I keep getting my IP blocked?
A: First check if you are using a data center IP, social platforms are particularly sensitive to this type of IP. Change the residential IP package, and at the same time reduce the number of concurrency to less than 5.

Q: What should I choose between dynamic and static IPs?
A: Look at the business scenario! Dynamic is suitable for wide-spread network collection (such as keyword search), static is suitable for deep tracking (such as user behavior analysis).

Q: What does GB mean in your package?
A: refers to the traffic consumption, 1GB can probably initiate 50,000 API requests (depending on the size of the returned data). Newbies are advised to test the waters with Dynamic Standard first.

Why do you recommend ipipgo?

this oneCarrier-grade resourcesIndeed can fight, last time a client to capture small language social platform, they actually even get Ethiopia's local carrier IP. And their client has aIntelligent Routingfeature that automatically selects the node with the lowest latency, which is too important for real-time data collection.

Lastly, don't use a free proxy to collect data, as the data will not be allowed, or the account will be blocked. ipipgo's pricing is medium in the industry, but it's better than the others.Guaranteed success rate, out of the question technical customer service responded within 10 minutes, much better than those who sell and then don't care.
