Proxies: Types
Every proxy page we have tested, in one place. Start with the type you need — residential, mobile, datacenter, SOCKS5 or rotating — or jump straight to a use case such as Instagram, sneakers, SEO or scraping. Each page ranks real providers we have paid for and measured, not a list scraped from their marketing.

By type

Rotating
A fresh IP per request or per session — the default for scraping at scale.
Dedicated
IPs nobody else uses: stable reputation for accounts and long sessions.
SOCKS5
Protocol-level proxies for apps, games, torrents and anything beyond HTTP.
Backconnect
One gateway, a whole rotating pool behind it — no IP lists to manage.
Mobile SOCKS5
Carrier IPs over SOCKS5, for apps that need both trust and a raw socket.
Mobile 4G/5G
Carrier IPs that sites trust most — for social media and strict targets.
Free
Free tiers and trials worth trying, and where free stops being enough.
Datacenter
The fastest and cheapest IPs, for targets that do not block hosting ranges.
Residential
Real home-user IPs in almost any country, city or ISP.
Anonymous
Proxies that hide the fact you use one — no forwarding headers, no leaks.
Shared
An IP split between a few users: the lowest price per address.
