Example
Notes
Best suited for:
- Geo-targeted scraping (e.g., accessing US-specific content).
- Using real residential IPs for higher trust in authorized workflows.
- Reaching sites that present strict browser verification, on content you are permitted to access.
Use premiumProxy to improve session reliability on sites with strict browser verification by using regular residential traffic. Target a specific country with proxyCountry, or switch to a datacenter or mobile proxy for different speed/trust trade-offs.
