A residential proxy is an IP address assigned by a real Internet Service Provider (ISP) to a real home device.
WHY USE RESIDENTIAL PROXIES?
- Highest trust score — websites cannot easily detect them
- Ideal for: web scraping, ad verification, sneaker bots, social media automation
- Real device IPs from 195+ countries
- Much harder to block compared to datacenter proxies
RESIDENTIAL vs DATACENTER
Residential: Real ISP IPs. Slower but highly trusted. Best for sites with strong anti-bot protection.
Datacenter: Server IPs. Very fast but easier to detect. Best for high-speed, high-volume tasks.
