Residential Proxy IP vs. Server Room Proxy IP: IP Type Selection Guide

What exactly is the difference between a residential agent and an engine room agent?

Often old iron asked me: "choose residential IP or IP room?" These two goods are like noodles and hand-rolled noodles, looking at the noodles, the actual use of the difference between the big to go.

Residential IPJust like the real address of your home broadband dial-up Internet access, the operator randomly assigned dynamic IP. for example, with ipipgo's dynamic residential package, every time you connect to the Internet will change to a new IP, especially suitable for scenarios where you need to change your identity frequently.

Server Room IPThe equivalent of mass-produced, industrial-grade IPs from a cluster of servers in a professional data center. Like ipipgo's static residential packages, each IP is fixed for a long period of time, suitable for scenarios that require stable connections.

What can happen if you choose the wrong type of IP?

Last week a friend who is an e-commerce company used the IP of the server room to register accounts in bulk, and all of them were blocked as a result. This is a typicalMismatch between IP type and scenarioThe

The server room IP is suitable:

• Fast page loading
• API interface call
• Server Remote Management

Residential IP is more suitable:

• Social Media Operations
• Price data collection
• Account Registration Raising

As a chestnut, using ipipgo's Dynamic Residential Package (Standard Edition) to do data collection with their automatic rotation function, the success rate can be increased by more than 60%.
