Residential Introduction

What is a residential proxy

  • A residential proxy is an IP address that is used by users at home given by their ISP (Internet Service Provider)

  • Residential proxies act as a home IP, whereas data centers don't. Meaning that you can bot sites like Nike, Adidas, and Supreme, websites that have lots of antibot measures.

What is the difference between a data center and residential proxy?

  • Residential proxies are slower than datacenters but have a very wide range of supported sites.

What is the difference between sticky and rotating?

  • Sticky proxies maintain the same IP while refreshing a website (recommended for the majority of sites)

  • Rotating proxies change it's IP every time it refreshes the page (recommended for Shopify monitoring)

What are the sites supported?

  • Residentials work on all sites, but the major supported ones are Supreme/Footsites/Shopify
