Question 1

What are datacenter proxies and how do they work?

Accepted Answer

Datacenter proxies are IP addresses hosted in data center facilities rather than assigned by Internet Service Providers (ISPs). When you connect through a datacenter proxy, your requests are routed through these servers, masking your real IP address. They work by acting as an intermediary between your device and the target website. Your request goes to the proxy server first, which then forwards it to the destination using its own IP address. The response follows the same path back. This process happens in milliseconds, making datacenter proxies ideal for high-speed operations like web scraping, SEO monitoring, price comparison, and accessing geo-restricted content at scale. Our datacenter proxies support HTTP protocol for maximum compatibility.

Question 2

How fast are your datacenter proxies compared to other proxy types?

Accepted Answer

Our datacenter proxies deliver speeds up to 10 Gbps with an average response time under 500ms. This makes them significantly faster than residential or mobile proxies. The speed advantage comes from dedicated server infrastructure with enterprise-grade hardware and optimized network routes. Datacenter proxies don't rely on consumer internet connections, so they maintain consistent performance regardless of time of day. For tasks requiring high throughput like bulk data extraction, API calls, or automated testing, datacenter proxies outperform other options. We continuously monitor and upgrade our infrastructure to ensure you get the fastest possible connections for your projects.

Question 3

Do you offer unlimited bandwidth with your proxy plans?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all our datacenter proxy plans include unlimited bandwidth at no extra cost. You can transfer as much data as you need without worrying about overage charges, throttling, or hidden fees. This is particularly valuable for data-intensive operations like scraping large websites, downloading media files, or running automated workflows that generate significant traffic. Unlike providers who charge per GB or impose monthly caps, our flat-rate pricing gives you predictable costs and the freedom to scale your operations. Whether you're processing 10GB or 10TB of data, your monthly cost stays the same based on your selected plan.

Question 4

What countries and locations are available for datacenter proxies?

Accepted Answer

We offer datacenter proxies in 90+ countries worldwide with servers strategically placed for optimal coverage. Major locations include the United States (multiple cities including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas), United Kingdom (London, Manchester), Germany (Frankfurt, Berlin), France (Paris), Netherlands (Amsterdam), Canada (Toronto, Vancouver), Australia (Sydney), Japan (Tokyo), Singapore, and many more. You can target specific countries or cities for geo-specific tasks like localized SEO research, regional price monitoring, or accessing content restricted to certain markets. Our dashboard lets you select locations with a single click, and you can switch between regions instantly without changing your configuration.

Question 5

Can I use datacenter proxies for web scraping and automation?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Our datacenter proxies are built specifically for web scraping and automation at scale. They work seamlessly with popular scraping tools and frameworks including Scrapy, Puppeteer, Playwright, Selenium, BeautifulSoup, and custom solutions. We support HTTP protocol, giving you flexibility for different use cases. Features like automatic IP rotation help you avoid rate limits and blocks. For more demanding tasks, you can use sticky sessions to maintain the same IP for a set duration. Many of our customers run millions of requests daily for price monitoring, lead generation, market research, and competitive analysis. Our infrastructure handles high concurrency with up to 1000 simultaneous connections depending on your plan.

Question 6

Is there a free trial available for testing your proxies?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we offer a generous free trial so you can test our service before committing to a paid plan. The trial includes 1GB of data, 7 days of access, and up to 100 concurrent threads. This gives you enough resources to run real tests on your actual use case. You can access all proxy locations, try different protocols, and verify compatibility with your tools. No credit card is required to start the trial. Just create an account, verify your Discord, and you'll have instant access to your proxy credentials. If you need additional testing resources, contact our support team. We want you to feel confident that our service meets your needs before you subscribe.

Question 7

How do datacenter proxies differ from VPNs?

Accepted Answer

Datacenter proxies and VPNs serve different purposes despite both masking your IP address. A VPN encrypts all traffic from your device and routes it through a single server, primarily for privacy and security. Datacenter proxies work at the application level, routing specific requests through proxy servers for targeted tasks. Key differences: VPNs typically offer one IP at a time, while proxy services provide pools of thousands of IPs with rotation capabilities. Proxies support high concurrency (hundreds or thousands of simultaneous connections), while VPNs are designed for single-user traffic. For web scraping, automation, and data collection, datacenter proxies are the better choice. They offer faster speeds, more IPs, and features specifically designed for these workloads. VPNs are better suited for personal browsing privacy and accessing streaming services.

Question 8

Can websites detect datacenter proxies?

Accepted Answer

Some websites can detect datacenter proxies using various methods like IP database lookups, behavioral analysis, and fingerprinting techniques. Datacenter IP ranges are cataloged in public databases, making them identifiable. However, detection doesn't always mean blocking. Many websites allow datacenter traffic for legitimate purposes. The key is how you use them. We help minimize detection through several strategies: our IPs have clean reputations with no spam or abuse history, we offer IP rotation to distribute requests across many addresses, and we provide guidance on request patterns and headers to appear more natural. For highly protected sites, we recommend combining datacenter proxies with proper request headers, realistic timing between requests, and browser fingerprint management. Our support team can advise on best practices for your specific targets.

Question 9

Should I use free datacenter proxies or paid services?

Accepted Answer

Free datacenter proxies come with significant risks and limitations that make them unsuitable for serious use. Free proxies are often overloaded, slow, and unreliable. Many have already been flagged and blocked by popular websites. Worse, some free proxy operators log your traffic, inject ads, or steal sensitive data. You have no guarantee of uptime, speed, or IP quality. With paid services like RedScrape, you get dedicated infrastructure, clean IPs with verified reputation, consistent speeds, 99.9% uptime SLA, and professional support. Your traffic remains private and secure. For business operations where reliability matters, paid proxies deliver value that far exceeds their cost. The time saved troubleshooting free proxy issues alone justifies the investment. Our entry plans start at just a few dollars, making professional proxy access affordable for any project size.

Question 10

Can I use datacenter proxies for social media automation?

Accepted Answer

Datacenter proxies can work with social media platforms, but success depends on your approach and specific use case. Platforms like Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and TikTok have sophisticated detection systems that can identify unusual traffic patterns. For basic tasks like checking public profiles, monitoring hashtags, or gathering publicly available data, datacenter proxies work well when used responsibly. The key is mimicking natural user behavior: limit request frequency, rotate IPs regularly, use proper headers, and avoid aggressive automation. For account management or actions requiring login, mobile proxies are generally more effective since they use real mobile carrier IPs that platforms trust more. We recommend datacenter proxies for read-only social media monitoring at moderate scales. For heavy automation or account operations, consider our mobile proxy offering or a hybrid approach combining both proxy types for optimal results.

Question 11

Are your Datacenter proxies shared among multiple users?

Accepted Answer

Yes, our datacenter proxies operate on a shared pool model, which allows us to offer competitive pricing while maintaining high quality. The shared infrastructure means you benefit from a larger IP pool with greater geographic diversity than dedicated options at the same price point. We carefully manage our proxy pool to ensure fair resource allocation and consistent performance for all users. Our intelligent load balancing distributes traffic evenly across available IPs, preventing congestion and maintaining fast response times. For users requiring exclusive access, we offer dedicated IP options with guaranteed exclusivity for enterprise customers with specific compliance or performance requirements.
