Static Residential Proxies
Static Residential Proxies do not rotate randomly but rather on-demand. They are good for web scraping to make a spider maintain its session at single website. And this session memory might last for life.
How are they different from dynamic/rotating residential proxies?
- Greater stability
- Faster speed
- Website sessions keeping

Undetectable’s proxy partners.
We’ve got some code provided by Akash D. working on ticketmaster.co.uk. He automates browser (Chrome as well as Edge) using Selenium with Python. The rotating authenticated proxies are leveraged to keep undetected. Yet, the site is protected with Distil network.
Recently we encountered a new powerful scraping service called Web Scraper IDE [of Bright Data]. The life-test and thorough drill-in are coming soon. Yet now we want to highlight its main features that has badly (in positive sense, strongly) impressed us.
Working with a Backconnect proxy service (Oxylab.io) we spent a long time looking for a way to authorize it. Originally we used JSoup to get the web pages’ content. The proxy() method can be used there when setting up the connection, yet it only accepts the host and port, no authentication is possible. One of the options that we found, was the following:

Oxylabs.io at a glance
Oxylabs.io is an experienced player in the proxy market. In the past few years, they have significantly expanded their proxy pool.
Right now they have a residential proxy pool with over 60M IPs and over 2M datacenter proxies. Their residential proxies cover every country in the world (!) and offer city-level targeting. Oxylabs datacenter proxies come from 82 locations and feature 7850 subnets.
Oxylabs is mainly focused on businesses and it is reflected in their product subscription plans. But recently they have introduced a Fast-Checkout feature, where customers can purchase residential proxies in a few clicks. Together with a recently added smaller plan ($300/month for 20GB of traffic) Oxylabs becomes much more attractive for smaller customers as well.

NetNut.io Review
The most successful enterprises are always the ones which manage to stay a step ahead of their rivals. And to remain ahead, you have to be able to access the industry information faster and more consistently than anybody else. This is especially true for e-commerce and online retail industries, where the pricing contest is extremely fierce. Thus, the smallest developments in information processes can result in large changes in the outcomes.
Proxies are an integrated part of most major web scraping and data mining projects. Without them, data collection becomes sloppy and biased. This is why it’s essential to know how to find the best affordable proxies for any web scraping project.
One of the best proxy types you could use for scraping is residential proxies. In this post, you’ll learn what they are, how they are priced and what to look for before committing your project’s budget.
