FAQs:
❓What’s the difference between static and rotating proxies?
Static proxies use the same IP address for all requests, making them ideal for tasks requiring a consistent identity. Rotating proxies automatically change IPs with each request, offering higher anonymity and lower blocking risk.

❓When should I use sticky sessions?
Sticky sessions are perfect for tasks that need a balance of consistency and anonymity, like retail purchases, web scraping, or automation. They keep the same IP for a set duration (e.g., 1, 10, 30 minutes) before rotating.

❓Can I switch between static and rotating proxies?
Yes! With our proxy solutions, you can choose between static, rotating, and sticky sessions depending on your needs. We offer residential, mobile, and datacenter proxies with flexible rotation options.

❓Why use proxies for web scraping or SEO monitoring?
Proxies help you avoid IP bans, CAPTCHAs, and detection by distributing requests across multiple IPs. Rotating proxies are especially useful for large-scale data collection and SEO monitoring.
