Public proxies don't work well with scrapebox. I tried a free VPN and it had a much better success rate, but I quickly hit my bandwidth limit. Now I am thinking of buying a VPN service, but some users say private proxies work well with scrapebox too. Which is a better choice for scrapebox - private proxies or a VPN?
Just noticed that getvpn .net offers free VPN accounts. They have a limit of usage just for 1 hour but I registered 3 accounts already and was not banned in any way yet. A good point they say that this one hour can be devided into several times if you stay connected less than 60 minutes. They have just 1 USA IP ... Alother limit is that you can not browse some secured sites (no https or ssl connections) but still if you require any fresh proxy - a nice choice. Anyone used them already? It looks like they started not long time ago but I hope they will stay alive for a while
Not to be dumb but, i had no idea about this thing I have just checked there homepage and 'scraprebox' looks like and automated Software to me, could anyone be so nice to throw some light on it
It is automated and can be used for tasks like finding blogs to comment on, automated blog commenting, checking backlinks, pinging to feed services etc.
I think that paid VPN Service is the best fit for you,because its more secure and fast, I personally use Change-mon-ip.com. Their connections are fast and stable, you will get helpful support for cheap prices
Proxy is a server that acts as a connecting location and allows network service to connect to other services in the network cloud. It could be responsible for processing your request to connect to a file, webpage or any other service while the proxy server itself could be located anywhere in the world. But a VPN network creates a secure connection over a public network such as a public telecommunication infrastructure, that is, the internet being one of the most important requirements of our daily lives. The encryption for such a connection is provided by using algorithms for having security and the establishment of a reliable connection which is not possible in the case of a proxy server. I prefer VPN Software as compare to proxies. For more details: VPN Vs Proxies
I have used YPP for quite some time. They answer questions and provide good support should you have any issues with the proxies. I use 60 proxies, however, I used them for quite more than just scraping for link building opp. 10 proxies are just fine for scraping, however, use with care b/c you can get the proxies banned...Best thing I can say is not to abuse the proxies. The more you have, the faster you can work.
proxy is not a safe option to go with...though i will recommend you VPN as it is safe and sound also allow you to access all the blocked websites around the world. I have been using VPN from last 6 months and never faced any issues with the bandwidth. Go for the paid one it will give you unlimited bandwidth. I am using StrongVPN. But you can go with HMA as it cheaper one...
If any of you guys need some private US proxies, I have almost 300 available right now. They work great with scrapebox.
