Use case: SEO and SERP tracking

Proxies for SEO and SERP tracking.

Proxies for SEO let you check search results the way a searcher somewhere else sees them. Pick a country from 150, or any US state, and every query can leave from a fresh residential IP. Rank tracking is a permitted use, and the gigabytes each search engine takes are metered on their own row.

Proxies for SEO

What are proxies for SEO?

Proxies for SEO are proxies that rank trackers and SEO tools send their search queries through, so each query comes from an IP in the place being measured. Search results change by country, state and city, so a tracker that checks everything from one office IP sees only one version of the results.

What you can measure

Rankings where your customers search.

Rankings by country

Query from any of 150 countries and see the results a local searcher gets.

Local rankings in the US

Any of the 51 US state targets on Essential and Premium, and a US city on Premium and Mobile.

Results on a phone network

Mobile exits are real phones on carrier networks, for checking what a mobile searcher sees.

Where teams start

Usually Essential or Premium Residential.

Essential covers country, US state and network (ASN) checks at the lowest price per GB. Move to Premium when a check needs one US city or SOCKS5. Both are prepaid by the gigabyte with no subscription.

FAQ

SEO proxy questions.

Still unsure? Open a ticket in Discord or email [email protected].

Which proxies work best for rank tracking?

Usually Essential or Premium Residential. Essential, at $1.50 per GB, covers country, US state and network (ASN) checks; Premium adds a US city and SOCKS5. Mobile shows results as a phone on a carrier network sees them.

Is rank tracking allowed?

Yes. Our Acceptable Use Policy permits search-engine results monitoring, SEO research and rank tracking, within the law and the rest of the policy.

Can I check local results by city?

In the US, on Premium Residential and Mobile: pick a state, then a city, in the dashboard. Everywhere else, target the country.

Should every query rotate?

Usually. A rotating line gives each query a fresh exit. Hold a sticky session when a check has to page through results from one IP.

How do I see what my rank checks cost?

Usage is metered per domain, so the gigabytes each search engine took show up on their own row in the Usage tab, live.
