Internet Service Providers: ISP Proxy Services Selection Guide

What exactly does a proxy IP do for you?

Recently, people always ask Lao Zhang, using proxy IP is not just a different address to access the Internet? This is only half right. For example, if you do e-commerce and need to register overseas stores in bulk, if you use your own IP, the platform will block you in minutes. At this time, dynamic residential IP is like living water, each operation is a new identity, the platform simply can not catch the pattern.

Another example is to engage in data collection, with data center IP is easy to be blocked by the site, but with the local operator's residential IP, the site thinks it is a real person to visit, the success rate is directly doubled. This is why choosing the right type of proxy is more important than knowing how to write crawler code.

Three Tips for Choosing the Right ISP Agent

First look at the business scenario:

Second look at the protocol support:Some old systems can only use Socks5, do browser automation have to use HTTPS. like ipipgo such as full protocol support, in case of unexpected situations can be switched at any time, than a single protocol provider is much more stable.

Third look at the method of extraction:Newbies are advised to go for the one with a client, which works in two clicks. It is more efficient for the technical team to tune the API directly, here is a Python example:

import requests
proxy = "http://user:pass@gateway.ipipgo.com:8080"
resp = requests.get("https://目标网站", proxies={"http": proxy})
print(resp.text)

Guide to avoiding pitfalls: Don't step on these minefields!

1. Cheap is cheap and you lose out:Sometime purchased a $3/GB proxy, the result is 30%IP are blacklisted, data all waste. Later changed to ipipgo's static residential, although the unit price is higher, but the success rate is stable at 92% or more.

2. Not looking at IP purity:Some agents' IPs are flagged by advertising alliances, and using them for promotion is just burning money for nothing. It is recommended to take a free trial package to test first, ipipgo's new users can receive 1GB of test traffic.

3. Ignore concurrency limits:There was a customer who did price comparison and bought a package with unlimited concurrency, which resulted in triggering wind control. Later changed to use enterprise-class dynamic residential, support for multi-threaded also does not block the IP, efficiency increased by 5 times.
