Currently, when online privacy and data security are of concern, the use of residential proxies has become an indispensable resource. From web scrapers and marketers to security enthusiasts and online security lovers

At its best, residential proxies provide basic anonymity when performing any online activity.

However, not all residential proxy providers are the same, and making the wrong choice can result in exposing your true online identity and even impact your business.

Let’s start with a few questions: 1: What are dynamic IP and static IP, 2: Comparison of dynamic IP and static IP, 3: What are the criteria for suppliers to select residential agents?

one: What are dynamic IP and static IP

Dynamic IP refers to the method of allocating IP addresses when needed. The so-called dynamic means that every time you go online, China Telecom will randomly assign an IP address. In other words, the IP address changes, but generally this change occurs every once in a while. Dynamic IP addresses and static IP addresses correspond to each other.

A static IP address (also known as a fixed IP address) is an IP address assigned to a computer or network device for long-term use. Generally speaking, only special servers or computers using dedicated Internet access have fixed IP addresses and require relatively expensive fees. Static IP must be used for secondary routing.

Two: Comparison between dynamic IP and static IP

There are significant differences between dynamic IP and static IP in several aspects:

• Allocation method: Dynamic IP addresses are automatically assigned by the network server and will be updated every time the device connects to the Internet. Static IP addresses are manually assigned by the network administrator and generally do not change.

• Usage scenarios: Dynamic IP addresses are suitable for scenarios where IP addresses need to be changed frequently, such as home or public places. Static IP addresses are suitable for service providers who need to maintain a constant IP address or devices that need to expose services to the outside world.

• Security: Due to the variability of dynamic IP addresses, it is difficult for network attackers to locate the device, so security is relatively higher. Due to the immutability of static IP addresses, devices can easily become targets of network attacks, so their security is relatively low.

•  Cost: Dynamic IPs are usually free because they can be easily deployed and used. Static IP needs to be purchased from an Internet service provider and configured with equipment, so the cost is relatively high.

Three: What are the criteria for suppliers to select residential agents?

The criteria for selecting residential agency suppliers mainly include the following aspects:

• Coverage area: Select a residential agency provider that can cover the desired business area to ensure the quality and availability of agency services.

• Proxy speed: Consider the provider's proxy speed to ensure that the proxy service can provide fast and stable network connections to meet business needs.

• Security: Choose a residential proxy provider that offers a high level of security to protect data transmission and privacy.

• Customer service and support: Consider the supplier's customer service and support capabilities to ensure that problems can be solved and helped in a timely manner
