What is a Proxy Server?

A proxy server acts as an intermediary between your device and the internet. When you connect through a proxy, websites see the proxy's IP address rather than your own. For businesses, proxies provide IP address management, geographic flexibility, and the ability to maintain separate identities for different automation tasks.

Dedicated vs Shared Proxies

Dedicated Proxies

A dedicated proxy is assigned exclusively to one customer. No other customer shares the IP address. This means the IP has no history of abuse from other users, delivers consistent performance, and is less likely to be blocked by websites.

Shared Proxies

Multiple customers share the same IP addresses. Significantly cheaper, but performance varies with usage patterns of other customers. Higher chance of IP blocks if another customer triggers bans.

Common Business Use Cases

  • Price monitoring: Track competitor pricing across e-commerce platforms
  • SEO monitoring: Check search rankings from different geographic locations
  • Automated testing: Run browser automation without triggering bot detection
  • Data collection: Legal web scraping for market research and business intelligence

FAQ

Can I use proxies for residential IP simulation?

Our proxies are datacenter IPs — not residential. They work well for most business automation but may be blocked by platforms with strict residential-IP-only policies. We clearly advise on appropriate use cases during onboarding.
