How do proxies work and how to use them?
A proxy server relays your internet requests out to their respective destinations, then fields the responses and passes them back to you.
Step 1
Send request
Your web request is sent from your IP address to the proxy server
Step 2
Forward request
The proxy server passes your traffic to the website you want to visit
Step 3
Receive response
The website's response is sent back to the proxy server
Step 4
Return data
The proxy server passes the requested data back to you without the website having to communicate directly with your device

Which type of proxy is the best?
There are many types of proxy servers. They differ in location, traffic handling, and anonymity. When choosing a proxy, assess your needs. Then, check our list of proxy types. This will help you achieve the best online protection.
Which type of proxy is the fastest?
1. Use data center proxies: Data center IPs are usually faster than residential or ISP proxies because they are directly connected to high-speed internet in data centers.
2. Choose the right geographic location: The closer the proxy server is to the target website server, the faster the response time.
What is the difference between a proxy server and a VPN?
A proxy server acts as an "intermediary" between the user and the network. It hides the user's IP address from the web servers they access but does not protect the data being sent and received. A VPN takes this a step further. It hides the user's IP address and location, making them unidentifiable.
Which proxy is the most secure?
Rotating residential proxies are the preferred choice for web users seeking advanced advantages. These proxies use real IP addresses from Internet Service Providers (ISPs), making them harder to detect and block.
What are the most common types of proxy servers?
There are many types of proxy servers, and the most common types include: residential proxies, ISP proxies (static residential proxies), data center proxies, unlimited proxies, mobile proxies, and anonymous proxies.
