Frequently asked questions about our rotating proxy network

What are rotating proxies?

What are rotating proxies? Rotating proxy networks are pools of datacenter and/or residential proxies that provide you a new proxy with every request. These proxy pools use an IP rotation policy that constantly rotates the proxy pool and enables you to not use the same proxy for a period of time. Making requests from rotating proxy pools make your requests harder to detect than static proxies and avoid you burning out your proxy pool when scraping websites.

Do I need to use rotating proxies when web scraping?

Yes, for the vast majority of web scraping use cases you need to use some form of rotating proxy otherwise your proxies will quickly get detected or blocked. You either need to build and maintain your own proxy infrastructure that will automatically rotate your requests through different proxy and header pools, or you can use a done-for-you solution like ScraperAPI.

How many rotating proxies do you have in your proxy pools?

The number of rotating proxies we have in our pools varies from month to month with changes in demand. However, we always maintain at least 5 million residential IPs in our pools and can scale up quickly if demand increases.

How can I access your residential and mobile rotating proxy pools?

To use our residential proxy pools you simply need to send your requests to the API via our API endpoint or proxy port along with the premium=true flag. From here the API will automatically route the request to one of our residential proxy pools and rotate proxies after every request.

Can I control the proxy rotation within the pools, i.e. make them temporarily static?

To control the proxy rotation with the proxy pools and reuse the same proxy for multiple requests, simply use the &session_number flag (e.g. session_number=123 ). The value of session can be any integer, simply send a new integer to create a new session (this will allow you to continue using the same proxy for each request with that session number). Sessions expire 15 minutes after the last usage.

Can I test your rotating proxy pools before subscribing to a plan?

Yes, you can sign up to our free plan here and make up to 1,000 requests with our rotating datacenter and residential proxies. No credit card required.
