When working on scripts for scraping, testing, or automation, one of the most common problems is running into IP blocks. Datacenter IPs often get flagged quickly, which slows down development and testing.
A workaround that has helped me is using residential proxies. They simulate real user traffic and make it much easier to test software at scale without constant interruptions.
For example, I’ve been using Nsocks in my recent projects. It offers a huge pool of residential IPs with city/ISP-level targeting, and the success rate has been far better compared to the usual free or datacenter options. Integration is simple too, whether through login credentials or API.
Just thought I’d share in case anyone else here is struggling with blocked requests during dev work.
