Traffic arbitrage has become very popular due to the possibility of large earnings. But arbitrageurs often have problems with scaling.
To increase the volume of advertising, resort to multi-accounting, which allows you to increase the amount of traffic, and also reduces the risk of losing money due to frequent blocking. But to build even a small network of profiles on a web resource, you need to take security seriously, or rather anonymity. And one of the key elements for this is changing the ip address.
Why do arbitrators need proxies
A proxy is an intermediate server that passes incoming and outgoing traffic through itself. This allows you to change the user's ip-address and location in the eyes of visited web resources.
Proxies are useful for arbitrating traffic when you need to:
- Parse search queries, collect data about the target audience and conduct competitive analysis without the risk of banning the main accounts;
- Maintain profiles on resources that are not available in the country (in foreign trading floors);
- Build a large advertising network of profiles on one resource (multi-accounting);
- Promote accounts using free methods using promotion programs (mailing, liking, cheating views).
The main advantage of a proxy is the ability to bypass antifraud systems. A nice bonus can be the security of personal data during work, as well as an improvement in the connection speed with sites whose servers are located far from the affiliate.
Which proxies to choose for arbitration
It is better to choose a proxy server depending on the tasks and budget. For example, mobile proxies in arbitration almost indispensable for registering a large number of accounts. Despite the high cost, a single mobile proxy is much better suited for creating new profiles. At a time, you buy several thousand IP addresses at once, to which the anti-fraud system is loyal.
In tasks that require security, for example, when working with a large advertising budget, it is better to use premium residential proxies. They are more expensive, but they look like a home ip address and are more trusted by web resources. For most tasks, private server proxies are sufficient, which are issued to one user.
How to connect and configure a proxy
You should pay attention to antidetect browsers. Many of them are created specifically for affiliates and, in addition to proxy support, have many useful functions: replacing hardware, browser fingerprints, and system data. In such browsers, it is convenient to configure proxies (there is an export and import of lists, a checker and other useful tools).
