Proxy Services
Frequently Asked Questions
A proxy service acts as an intermediary between your device and the internet, masking your IP address and encrypting your connection. It can help with privacy, security, and bypassing geographical restrictions.
Proxy services allow you to enhance your online privacy, access geo-blocked content, scrape data securely, and prevent your IP address from being tracked by websites.
Common proxy types include residential proxies, datacenter proxies, mobile proxies, and ISP proxies. Each type has different advantages depending on your use case.
Proxies help with web scraping by rotating IP addresses, preventing websites from detecting and blocking your scraping activities. They allow you to scrape data without getting blocked.
Residential proxies use real IP addresses assigned to homes by ISPs, making them harder to detect. Datacenter proxies come from data centers and are easier to block but offer higher speed and lower cost.
