How Residential Agents Work: An Explanation of the Principles of Residential Agent Technology

What the heck is a residential agent anyway?

When many people first hear about residential agents, they think it's some kind of high-tech product. To put it bluntly, it is the equivalent ofBorrowing someone else's network door numberHelp you to do. For example, you have to go to a certain neighborhood delivery, but the guards do not allow strangers to enter, this time to find a neighborhood residents to help you on behalf of the delivery, which is the underlying logic of the residential agent.

Unlike a regular server room agent, a residential agent uses theReal Home Broadband IPThe first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty. It's like you're doing something online with a "cloak of invisibility" - the site looks at you like a normal user surfing the web at home, and you can't detect any anomalies at all. ipipgo's pool of residential proxies covers more than 200 countries, and there are more than 5 million real residential IPs in the U.S. alone. The IPs are in rotation.

How does this technology actually work?

Take a real case: there is a cross-border e-commerce old brother, need to real-time price comparison but always by the site blocked IP. ipipgo dynamic residential proxy after the use of ipipgo.Automatically switches to a different home IP for each requestThe crawl success rate directly soared from 40% to 92%. the doorway here is:

 Python Sample Code - Switching Proxies Automatically
import requests
from ipipgo import get_proxy Assuming this is their API interface

def crawler(url).
    proxy = get_proxy(type='residential') get residential proxy
    response = requests.get(url, proxies={"http": proxy, "https": proxy})
    return response.text

Notice in the code theget_proxymethod, which is the killer feature offered by ipipgo. Their API spits out thousands of fresh IPs per second, which is dozens of times more efficient than traditional manual IP changing.

How to choose a dynamic/static proxy without stepping in the hole?

Here's one.The Golden Rule of Selection::

There is a social media operation of the sister has suffered a loss: the use of dynamic agents to raise the number, the result is that the account is always being wind control. Switch to ipipgoStatic Residential AgentsAfter the IP address is fixed to a real home in the US, the account survival rate is directly doubled.

The 3 most common potholes that white people fall into

1. Cheap to buy junk IPsSome resellers will re-sell used IPs, which have long been blacklisted.

2. Wrong choice of agreement costs nothing: HTTP protocol for data collection, Socks5 for game acceleration.

3. No concept of flow calculation.: There can be a 100 times difference in traffic between watching web pages and watching videos, so it is recommended to buy a small package first to test it out!

QA session

Q: Why are dynamic proxies so much cheaper than static?
A: Dynamic IP is used by everyone in turn, just like shared rent; static IP is unique, naturally the cost is different

Q: Will I get my water meter checked with a residential agent?
A: It's perfectly legal to use it for formal purposes, such as market research and advertisement verification, but don't use it for illegal purposes.

Q: What is ipipgo's TK line?
A: Optimized lines specifically for TikTok operations, people who have used them say that the speed of brushing videos whoosh!

How do you play the residential agent?

Here's one.Hidden Tips: Install the ipipgo client on your old phone and set it up as aIntelligent Routing ModeThis way, all the traffic will go to the proxy automatically when you brush or hang scripts. This way when brushing and hanging scripts, all traffic automatically goes to the proxy, which is much less work than configuring it in the code.

One last reminder: when choosing a packageLook at business needs before negotiating priceThe first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a customized version of the program. Like doing cross-border e-commerce data collection, choose the dynamic standard version is enough; if you engage in overseas live such as high-traffic business, directly on the enterprise customized version is more cost-effective. ipipgo customer service can do free program diagnostics, which is particularly friendly to newcomers.
