What does a German proxy IP really do?
To give a real example, Lao Zhang, who is a cross-border e-commerce company, recently found that the price of goods on the German station always shows anomalies. Later found that the platform adjusted the price display according to the location of the visiting IP. At this time, if there is a German local IP, you can see the real foreground display effect.
For example, if you are engaged in overseas promotion, you often need to test the effect of advertising in different regions. If you log in with a German proxy IP, you can simulate the real browsing scene of local users. This kind of demand can't be handled by ordinary network tools, so you must findGenuine localization agency servicesThe
Is it reliable to build your own agent?
A lot of technical parties think of renting a German server to build their own proxy, which I really did three years ago. I bought a Frankfurt VPS for 49€/month and it turned out:
- IP segments are marked as data center IPs by major platforms
- Peak latency spikes to 300ms+
- Port blocked by service provider after three months
Later on, the calculation found that the cost of self-built is more expensive than buying a ready-made agent 20%. the key to people's professional service providers haveDirect cooperation with local operators, IP pools are all dynamically assigned by residential broadband, which is the real deal.
Hands on with ipipgo!
As an example, their static home package is available in three steps:
- After registering on the website, go to the user center and select "Germany".
- Select HTTP/HTTPS in "Protocol Type" (depends on business requirements)
- Copy the API link into the code or download the client to connect directly to it
import requests
proxies = {
'http': 'http://用户名:密码@de.ipipgo.com:端口',
'https': 'http://用户名:密码@de.ipipgo.com:端口'
}
response = requests.get('https://httpbin.org/ip', proxies=proxies)
print(response.text)
This configuration in the Python crawler project, the request success rate can reach 98% or more. If you use the enterprise version of the dynamic residential IP, remember to add a polling mechanism in the code to automatically change the IP.
How do you choose a package without stepping into a trap?
| Business Type | Recommended Packages | caveat |
|---|---|---|
| Short-term data collection | Dynamic Standard Edition | Note that traffic will be automatically deactivated when it exceeds the limit |
| Long-term operation and maintenance | Static homes | Fixed IP requires regular renewal |
| Enterprise Applications | Enterprise Dynamic Edition | Support for customizing IP purity |
Focusing on the Enterprise Edition, their TK line is especially good for those who need toStable connections with high concurrencyThe scene. Previously, a customer to do live data monitoring, with ordinary proxy is always lagging, change to a dedicated line after the delay directly down to 80ms or less.
Guidelines on demining of common problems
Q: What should I do if the proxy IP suddenly fails to connect?
A: First check your account balance, then test your local network. If both are OK, go to User Center and click "IP Diagnosis", the system will automatically detect and replace the problem node.
Q: What if I need multiple IPs at the same time?
A: Check multiple countries directly in the region selection, pay attention to the dynamic package is based on traffic billing, don't open too many regions at the same time to run out of traffic.
Q: What should I do if I detect a proxy IP?
A: In this case, it is recommended to change the static residential IP, or contact customer service to open theIP Whitelisting Service. They have some cold carrier IP segments that have a much lower probability of being flagged.
Speak from the heart.
The two things I'm most afraid of with proxy services: either the quality of the IP is not good, or the client's clothes are dead. ipipgo has a detail that impresses me quite a bit - every time you create a work order, you must reply within 10 minutes, and once at 3:00 in the morning when you ask a question, there is actually a real person who responds to it. However, to spit on their Chinese translation, the official website, some pages are still mixed with Chinese and English, I guess the technical team update too fierce did not take care of.
A final reminder for newbies:Never log in to important accounts in a proxy environment! It is recommended to sign up for a test account specifically to run your business, safety first. If you are not sure which package to use, talk directly to their technical customer service, I heard that you can customize a step quote based on the amount of business.
