Rotating Proxies (IPs)

Using rotating proxies is straightforward: choose a reputable provider, set rotation settings, copy the proxy endpoint, and integrate it with your code. However, without a quality provider, even the best setup can fall short, so make sure you invest in one that offers strong performance and consistent service.

Yes, residential proxies can be rotating. These proxies change the IP address after a specific user-set period, or after each request. They are commonly used for activities like web scraping, multi-account management, SEO monitoring, or bypassing geo-restrictions.

Our datacenter proxies deliver the quickest response times, coming in at <0.3 seconds. However, depending on your needs, speed may not always be the main concern. For example, our residential proxies, with response times of <0.5 seconds, offer nearly the same speed but with enhanced privacy – ideal for staying fully undetected by anti-proxy measures.

The cost of rotating proxies varies based on the type you choose. Datacenter proxies are generally the most affordable, while mobile proxies tend to be the most expensive. Pricing depends on the proxy type and your specific usage needs. At Smartproxy, the cost of rotating proxies starts from $2.20/GB.

To use a rotating proxy, you'll need to configure your internet connection settings or install a Chrome extension or Mozilla Firefox add-on. Once the proxy is set up, all your traffic will be routed through the rotating proxies, switching out the IP address with each request for up to 24 hours for custom sticky sessions.
