Residential proxy knowledge overview

This page summarizes the basic concepts, selection methods and privacy considerations of residential proxies to help you determine the product type and usage goals before purchasing.

What is a residential proxy

Residential proxy uses the residential network egress IP. MaskProxy provides rotating residential proxies that are billed by GB of traffic, as well as static residential proxies that are used for a fixed period of time.

  • First understand the difference between dynamic proxy and static proxy.
  • Choose a plan based on region, session stability, traffic volume and usage period.
  • After purchasing, complete the configuration through the proxy extraction and connection testing tutorials in the help center.

What to pay attention to when choosing

  • Whether the target country or region is selectable.
  • Does the service require rotating IP or fixed IP?
  • Estimated traffic, usage duration, concurrency, and protocols supported by third-party tools.

Usage Reminder:Please comply with the target website’s terms of service, robots.txt, applicable laws and data protection requirements. Proxy connections do not replace account security, content authorization, or business compliance review.
