There are many ways to describe proxy IP, including HTTP proxy, SOCKS proxy, data center proxy, residential proxy, free proxy, etc. No matter which description, it is divided according to different standards. Today we will take a closer look at the types of proxy IP.
Defined by price. Proxy IP can be divided into free proxy IP and paid proxy IP. Free proxy IP means that users do not need to pay any fees when using the IP; paid proxy IP means that users need to pay the corresponding price when using it. Generally speaking, the quality of paid proxy IP is better than that of free proxy IP.
According to the degree of anonymity of the proxy IP, it can be divided into transparent proxy IP, common anonymous proxy IP and high anonymous proxy IP. Transparent proxy IP has the worst anonymity, it is very easy to expose the user's real IP address, and it has almost no privacy protection effect; the degree of anonymity of common anonymous proxy IP is higher than that of transparent proxy IP. It has a certain degree of anonymity, but it is easier to be identified by the target website, thus showing the original IP address; high anonymous proxy IP has the best anonymity among the three, it can not only protect the user's real IP address, but also will not show that the user is using a proxy IP.
According to the source of the proxy IP, the proxy IP can be divided into residential proxy and data center proxy. The IP of residential proxy comes from the residential address of real individual users or families; the data center proxy is a data center composed of a large number of servers in the computer room, and the proxy IP address all comes from the data center computer room.
According to the protocol type of the proxy IP, it can also be divided into HTTP proxy, HTTPS proxy, and SOCKS proxy. HTTP proxy is currently the most widely used protocol type; HTTPS proxy uses the SSL protocol to encrypt data and is a relatively safe proxy type; SOCKS proxy has a lower working level than HTTP and HTTPS proxy, but SOCKS proxy has a wide range of uses and supports multiple protocol types.
According to the purity of the proxy IP, the proxy IP can be divided into exclusive proxy IP and shared proxy IP. Exclusive proxy IP is a proxy service provided only to a certain user, and the purity of the proxy IP is higher. Shared proxy IP is a proxy service used by multiple people, and the purity of the IP is lower.
