Can't get the IP address? Teach you how to accurately set up domestic proxies
Two days ago, an e-commerce friend told me to spit, said they engaged in live with goods always by the platform to limit the flow. I went over to take a look, good guy, the team with the IP address all crowded in Hangzhou, a computer room. This can not be found by the platform is strange! Today, I will give you a break, how to use proxy IP to realize accurate positioning in China.
IP positioning pain points in real scenarios
Don't rush to study the technical parameters first, we have to understand which scenarios must use precise positioning. There are three most common scenarios:
①Localization service testing(e.g. takeaway apps showing delivery charges for different cities)
②Multi-account operation against correlation(Ecommerce matrix numbers should never use crosstown IPs)
③ Data collection compliance(Some sites have restrictions on off-site access)
To give a real example, a hotel chain wants to monitor the price of each branch of the official website, if you use the Beijing IP to check the price of the Shanghai branch, it is guaranteed that the price displayed is not the same as the actual store. At this time, you have to use the local proxy IP in Shanghai to get accurate data.
Proxy IP Selection Guide to Avoid Pitfalls
Proxy IP on the market is divided into three major schools, let's use the table to compare more intuitive:
| typology | Scenario | price range |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic Residential | High-frequency switching of IP services | From $7.67/GB |
| Static homes | Long-term fixed IP requirements | From $35/IP |
| Corporate Line | High Concurrency Operations | Customized Quotation |
Here's the kicker.Static Residential IPThis is best suited for scenarios where you need to maintain a fixed location for a long time. For example, if you want to open 10 stores in a treasure, each store hangs the IP of a different city, using a static IP can avoid re-login verification in three days.
Real-world setup tips (with code)
Using ipipgo's API as an example, there are two main parameters to look at when setting up positioning:Geographic coderespond in singingOperator Logo. For example, to get the IP of Shanghai Telecom:
import requests
api_url = "https://api.ipipgo.com/getip"
params = {
"key": "Your API key",
"region": "sh", Shanghai abbreviation
"isp": "telecom", operator
"count": 1
}
response = requests.get(api_url, params=params)
print(response.json())
Note that there is a pitfall: not all areas support subdivided to the level of districts and counties. For example, Beijing Chaoyang District and Haidian District may share the area code of 010, which has to be used with the GPS location function to assist in identification.
Positioning deviation troubleshooting triple axe
Don't panic if you can't locate the IP, follow this order to troubleshoot:
1. First check whether the IP library is updated (especially in areas where administrative divisions have been reorganized)
2. Turn off the GPS function of the cell phone during the test.
3. Use third-party websites to verify IP attribution (recommend the online testing tool on the official website of ipipgo)
Last week, I helped a customer to handle a typical case: obviously set the IP of Chengdu, but a job site shows the IP in Chongqing. In the end, it was found that the old version of SDK they used did not update the administrative division data, upgrade to the latest version and it will be normal.
QA First Aid Kit
Q: What should I do if my location doesn't change after switching IPs?
A: first clear the browser cache, if you use the API remember to add Cache-Control: no-cache in the request header
Q: What should I do if my static IP suddenly fails?
A: Immediately contact ipipgo customer service for a new IP, their SLA promises a 30-minute response
Q: How do I choose a package for my enterprise level needs?
A: Average daily usage of more than 50GB directly choose the enterprise version of the dynamic residential, with exclusive access and traffic discounts
Speaking of giving home a call. ipipgo'sTK LineIndeed, there are two brushes, the last double eleven a head of the live broadcast organization with this to carry a million concurrency. Bosses who need customized solutions can directly find their technical team, and I have heard that the recent activities to send the number of IP testing.
PS: Don't ask how to get a free agent in the comment section, those wild IP light is blocked heavy is cheated. The formal business or go enterprise package reliable, after all, the35 bucks for a peace of mind IPIt's a lot less than what you'd lose if you were banned.
