How important is it for residential agents to cover 220+ countries with their IP?
In scenarios that require multi-region network connectivity, many users have encountered this dilemma: when the business needs to simultaneously access the data of a small country in Southeast Asia, they find that there are no available nodes in the region for the 90% proxy service provider on the market. This situation not only affects the efficiency of work, but also may lead to project stagnation.
Taking cross-border e-commerce as an example, when a seller is expanding into the Latin American market, it needs to monitor the prices of goods in six countries at the same time, including Chile, Colombia and Uruguay. When using ordinary agent services, it often encountersHigh IP duplication rate,No available nodes in some countriesProblems such as this result in data collection failures as high as 401 TP3 T. This is where a true residential agent network covering 220+ countries is needed to solve the problem.
How do you verify an agent's true coverage capabilities?
Many service providers claim to cover 200+ countries, but in reality, there is a lot of water in the water. We suggest to verify it through three dimensions:
Verification Dimension | Effective methods |
---|---|
geographic diversity | Requirement to get IPs from cold regions like Iceland, Niger, Vanuatu, etc. at the same time |
IP purity | Check that the IP type is real home broadband (not server room IP) |
Connection Stability | Connection success rate in the same country tested over a 72-hour period |
As an example, ipipgo's actual test data shows that its residential IP network not only covers the regular countries, but also includes thePacific island country,African landlocked countriesand other special areas. With the country code filtering function it provides, users can accurately obtain real residential IPs in Palau (PW), Reunion Island (RE), and other areas.
Strategies for Efficient Use of Multi-National IP Resources
When 220+ national IP resources are actually available, scientific scheduling methods need to be employed to maximize value:
- geographic rotation strategy: Grouping of target countries by continent, with automatic switching of regions every 2 hours
- Business matching principle: Prioritize the use of G7 country IPs for financial validation services and emerging market IPs for data collection services
- Intelligent Routing Technology: ipipgo's automatic optimal link selection feature, which automatically assigns nodes with the lowest latency based on current network conditions
Why is it that residential IP pools make or break a business?
We compare the performance of three common agent types in multinational operations:
Agent Type | Country coverage | Success rate of requests | Applicable Scenarios |
---|---|---|---|
Data Center Agents | 80+ | 68% | basic crawler |
4G Mobile Agent | 120+ | 79% | Mobile Testing |
Residential Agents | 220+ | 93% | Transnational operations |
ipipgo's residential IP pool utilizesHome Broadband Real IPEach IP comes with complete ASN information and geo-location labeling. Its unique IP health scoring system automatically eliminates low-quality nodes to ensure business continuity.
