Getting Started

Anonymous proxies can be free - Webshare offers 10 free anonymous proxies to get started that are not publicly shared. If you're looking for paid anonymous proxies, pricing starts at $0.029 per proxy or $2.99 per month for 100 proxies.

Pricing and Plans

Firstly, you would have to find a reliable proxy provider and purchase a proxy plan. Next, you should obtain the IP address and port number of the proxy. Finally, connect to the proxy on your browser or other device using the proxy login credentials. We recommend testing your anonymous proxy IP address after connecting to make sure that it works.

Getting Started

"Verified proxies are premium datacenter proxies that have been tested and verified to work with selected target websites. Verified proxies enable users to scrape or access target sites with >99% success rate, which is a number more commonly seen for Residential or Dedicated proxies.

To put it simply, Verified proxies take the desired features of Datacenter proxies and Residential proxies, and combines them into a single solution of reliable, fast and affordable proxies."

Proxy Basics

A shared proxy is used by multiple users simultaneously, meaning that various individuals or entities might access the same IP address at the same time. In contrast, a dedicated proxy is exclusive to a single user, ensuring that the IP address is used by that individual or organization alone, which often results in better performance and increased security.

Shared proxies are great for web scraping, app testing, accessing geo-restricted content, price monitoring, SEO monitoring, account management and many other use cases.

Proxy Basics

To start using shared datacenter proxies, first sign up on our platform, select the desired package or number of proxies, make a payment, and then follow the provided configuration instructions to integrate the proxies with your applications or browser settings. Additionally, our support team is always available for assistance.

Here at Webshare, we see the global need for costless proxies and the scale of scams and cybersecurity intrusions with such proxies. In light of this, we have allocated resources to provide any web user with a reliable and fully anonymous proxy solution. Take a look at our documentation to learn more about our free offer.

Generally, free proxy servers are regarded as unsafe when sourced from unreliable providers. This sentiment stems from users that use free proxies from untrusted providers, whose main aim is to scam their clients.

It is important to evaluate the trustworthiness of a provider, as free proxies can often be used to collect and sell user data, expose users to malware, or even steal their personal information.

Proxy Features

The answer depends on the reliability of a provider, as there are many performance issues, scams, and cybersecurity violations involved with free proxies. Simply put, free proxies are legitimate when provided by a trusted and established company. Additionally, web proxy providers often offer a long list of free proxies, meaning they are probably not looked after properly and are unsafe.

At Webshare, we offer free premium proxies that are limited to 10 IP addresses per account. Thus, our professional team can constantly maintain them for the best performance and security.

Proxy Features

It is a web proxy that is available without any cost. A proxy server is an intermediary between a user’s device and the internet. When a user requests access to a specific website address, the request is sent to the proxy server, which then forwards the request to a website.

A proxy uses its own IP address, essentially hiding the actual IP address of a user. In turn, users can access blocked websites, browse anonymously, and hide their web activity.

Proxy Basics

If you have any Webshare plan – for datacenter, static residential or residential proxies – SOCKS5 protocol is a complementary feature and you can use it for free. 

Pricing and Plans

Offering fast speed and high performance, SOCKS5 proxies are best suited for traffic-intensive tasks: video streaming, live calls, gaming, accessing geo restricted content. By offering faster download speeds, these proxies are great when fast pace is more important than data precision.

Proxy Features

While SOCKS4 doesn’t allow any authentication methods, SOCKS5 proxy servers do and Webshare SOCKS5 proxy implements secure authentication.

Proxy Basics

SOCKS is an internet protocol; it stands for Socket Secure and is most often used for heavy traffic tasks, like P2P sharing and streaming. Meanwhile, SOCKS5 is the latest version of the SOCKS protocol. SOCKS5 supports TCP connections and offers enhanced security online.

Proxy Basics

We offer a number of locations worldwide to suit your proxy usage needs. For a full list of available locations, see our Global Proxy Network page.

Proxy Basics

Usually, ISPs (Internet service providers) don’t assign static IP addresses to residential IPs as static connections are more pricey and not sustainable for the providers. Rotating residential proxies are more common among ISP proxy providers. 

Proxy Features

A static residential IP is an actual residential IP address assigned by an Internet Service Provider (ISP), which allows you to stay connected to the same IP for a prolonged period of time.

Proxy Basics

While trustworthy proxy providers generally provide high levels of anonymity, there’s always a risk of being detected by the target website. Websites may find your activities suspicious, trace your real IP address, and block you. Therefore, it’s important to use proxy servers with caution and responsibility at all times.

Proxy Features

Like any other type of proxy, a residential proxy is designed to act as a getaway between a user and the internet. By assigning you with a residential IP address, it protects your identity and allows you to collect public web data from any specific location worldwide.

Getting Started

One of the main reasons why people and businesses choose to implement real residential IPs in their web scraping operations is their ability to imitate organic user behavior and successfully bypass various web scraping challenges, such as IP blocks, CAPTHAs, and geo-restrictions.
