First, HTTP proxy in the end is what? First understand the basic concepts
To put it in human terms, the HTTP proxy is equivalent to the "middleman" between you and the website. For example, if you want to visit a website, the normal situation is to connect directly to the past, with the proxy will first detour to the proxy server, and then by it to help you forward the request. In this process, theYour real IP is hidden.The website can only see the IP of the proxy server.
To cite a realistic scenario: do data collection friends often encounter website IP blocking, this time with the proxy IP rotating access, you can effectively bypass the restrictions. We ipipgo users, do e-commerce price comparison, social media operations, basically rely on this trick to solve the problem of sealing.
II. Core Parameters Configuration Manual (handbook)
Configuring the agent mainly depends on these four parameters, don't panic, let's take it apart one by one:
| Parameter name | Filling Format | error prone point |
|---|---|---|
| IP address | 123.45.67.89 | Don't bring http://前缀 |
| port number | 8080 or 8888 | Must match IP type |
| user ID | ipipgo_001 | Note the case sensitivity |
| cryptographic | Abc@1234 | Special symbols should be escaped |
Python sample code (remember to replace it with your own account)
import requests
proxy = {
'http': 'http://用户名:密码@ipaddress:port',
'https': 'http://用户名:密码@ip address:port'
}
response = requests.get('destination URL', proxies=proxy)
Third, 90% people will step on the pit (mine guide)
Pothole 1: Protocol mismatch - For example, an IP with the socks5 protocol but paired with the http type, which then fails even 100 times. In the ipipgo client there is aProtocol auto-adaptationfeature that can save a lot of work.
Pothole 2: Timeout Settings - Many tutorials don't mention this, the default timeout for proxy requests is a permanent wait. It is recommended to add the timeout parameter to retry if there is no response for more than 5 seconds:
requests.get(url, proxies=proxy, timeout=5)
IV. QA session (solving specific problems)
Q: How do I check if the proxy is in effect?
A: A visit to http://ipipgo.com/checkip, an exclusive detection page, will show the IP attribution currently in use
Q: What should I do if I encounter a 403 forbidden error?
A: First check if the account is in arrears, then confirm if the IP is blocked by the target website. Recommended to use ipipgo'sDedicated Static IP PackageThe $35/IP can be used for a month, and the stability is much higher than the shared IP.
Fifth, choose the right service provider is the hard way
The quality of proxy IPs on the market varies, and often encounter problems with small IP pools and slow response. The three main advantages of our ipipgo:
- Global 200+ countries resources, want to use which country's IP randomly cutting
- The client comes with intelligent routing, automatically selecting the fastest node
- 7×24 hours technical support, response speed 3 times faster than peers
Recommended for beginnersDynamic Residential (Standard)The price of $7.67/GB is enough for one month. Enterprise-level users directly on the TK line, do overseas business that is a stable.
Lastly, I would like to say a word: the proxy parameters look simple, but in practice there are many ways to use them. Encounter problems do not carry hard, remember to contact ipipgo's technical customer service, our engineers are real-world, guaranteed to give you a clear understanding.
