IP pool — Best HTTP Proxy
The type and locations of the pool limit which targets and regions an HTTP proxy can serve, whatever else the plan offers.
Meaning in this directory
In this directory, an IP pool is the supply of exit addresses behind a proxy endpoint. Pools differ by IP type. Datacenter addresses come from hosting networks. Residential addresses come from home connections. Mobile addresses come from cellular carriers.
Pools also differ by country coverage and by how often addresses are reused. Providers often state pool size in marketing, and those figures are hard to check from outside.
Connection to PinguProxy
PinguProxy sells residential proxies paid per GB, with no plan and no commitment, and GB credits do not expire. Residential proxies can target a country by adding a country tag to the username. PinguProxy states that residential targeting reaches 221 countries.
TOR and mobile proxies are included free with any plan, one proxy each. Pool size and city-level targeting are not stated here, so confirm them on PinguProxy's official site.
A verification question
Check one claim against live results: whether the country tag returns addresses in the country you asked for.
Pick a country your job needs. Send a few requests with that country tag to an IP echo or geolocation service. Record each IP and the location the service reports. Geolocation databases can disagree, so compare two services if a result looks wrong. Repeat for any second country you plan to use.
