Web Scraping Proxies
Web scraping proxies act as protective gateways between your scraper and target websites, rotating IPs to avoid detection. They ensure stable access to data sources without getting blocked or throttled. Plasma Proxies delivers high-performance scraping proxies at just $1.9 per GB.
How web scraping proxies work?
Web scraping proxies function as intermediary servers between your scraping application and target websites. When you send a request, it first passes through the proxy server, which forwards it using its own IP address instead of yours. The website responds to the proxy, which then relays the data back to your scraper, effectively hiding your original identity throughout the entire process.
These proxies distribute requests across multiple IP addresses to prevent detection by anti-scraping systems. Most proxy services implement automatic rotation features that switch IPs after predetermined thresholds, simulating organic browsing behavior. They come in residential (from real households), datacenter (from cloud providers), and mobile (from cellular networks) varieties, each offering different levels of anonymity and success rates.
