Well, lot\u2019s of things are art, especially <strong>Search Engine Optimization (<a href=\"https:\/\/skadoogle.com\/seo-trends\/\">SEO<\/a>)<\/strong>. I\u2019ll spare you the basic lecture on SEO because if you\u2019re planning on using proxies and software to boost your search rankings, <strong>you know exactly what it is.<\/strong> But that doesn\u2019t mean you know how to optimize your website for search, and even if you did, you don\u2019t know the art of it.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t mean to talk down to you. The reality is almost nobody knows the art of SEO warfare. That\u2019s why you can pay companies thousands of dollars to help you. It\u2019s also why countless software applications have been developed; why blackhat, greyhat,\u00a0and whitehat\u00a0hat techniques are hotly debated over the internet.<\/p>\n<p>In an increasingly internet-centric world, SEO is a currency that multiplies its own wealth. It\u2019s completely understandable why you want to get in on the gold rush, and I\u2019m here to help.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll be focusing on the ways to do this with SEO software because you probably don\u2019t have thousands to spend (monthly) on a specialized company. That said, money is going to be an important piece of this How-To.<\/p>\n<p>SEO software, especially the best software, isn\u2019t free, and many of the proxy types I\u2019ll be discussing below will cost monthly as well.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re likely doing this to grow a business.

Even if you are performing legitimate white hat searches, Google and other companies will block your requests if they are repeated too often and from the same IP.

Such is the case with all free proxies.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a better time management system or wondering why all your free proxies keep breaking, that\u2019s why. Stop using them and move on to a <a href=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/private-proxies\/\">private proxy provider<\/a>. Yes, it will cost money. Remember, this is an investment.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2 id=\"ask-the-provider\" class=\"ftwp-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ask_the_Provider\"><\/span>Ask the Provider<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first and almost-always foolproof rule in the guidebook is not complicated, it doesn\u2019t cost any money, and it usually results in a better understanding of both the software you\u2019re using and the proxies you may buy.<\/p>\n<p>Ask your provider. Do it. Every single legitimate proxy provider should have a \u201cContact Us\u201d section. If they don\u2019t, beware that provider.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll want to be straight forward in your request for information. Ask what type of proxies they provide, what types of software or platforms the proxies typically work on, and what level of technical troubleshooting is available.<\/p>\n<p>That last step is key. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.privateproxyreviews.com\/best-seo-proxies\/\"><strong>Some SEO proxies providers<\/strong><\/a> are very helpful and very tech-oriented, so you\u2019ll get real answers from a dedicated staff. Others will just try to sell you more products, which you don\u2019t want or need.<\/p>\n<p>You can go about these requests in two different ways:<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Ask_the_provider_what_software_works_best_with_their_IPs\"><\/span><strong>1. Ask the provider what software works best with their IPs. <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t already pulled the trigger on a type of software but have narrowed it down to one or two providers, shoot an email and ask which SEO software tool works best with their proxies. ScrapeBox, <a href=\"###gsa-ser\/\">GSA<\/a>, and <a href=\"###link-assistant-com\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SEO PowerSuite<\/a> are all popular options (there are many, many more). If the provider says a certain kind works better and you like what they\u2019re o\ufb00ering, go that route.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/proxies-for-gsa\/\">Which Proxies Should I Use for GSA SER (Search Engine Ranker)?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Tell_the_provider_what_kind_of_software_you_have_and_ask_if_their_proxies_work\"><\/span>2. Tell the provider what kind of software you have and ask if their proxies work.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Sometimes you\u2019ve already paid for the software. In this case, tell them what you have and ask if it works in certain use cases.<\/p>\n<p>Both of these methods will require you to be specific about how you want to use your proxies. You should say things like, \u201c<strong>Will your proxies work for ScrapeBox\u2019s Keyword Harvester<\/strong>?\u201d or \u201c<strong>How do your proxies hold up with <a href=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/proxies-for-senukex-xrumer\/\"><em>SEnuke\u2019s <\/em>backlink posting capability<\/a>?<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The readers who balked at that second question have a leg up on the game, because they know the difference between a white hat and a black hat question. Automated backlink posting, like that conducted by SEnuke, is frowned upon in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>It automatically leaves comments on related blogs and sites with URL links back to your own website. This is considered \u201ccheating\u201d because you\u2019re not generating quality backlinks.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/ways-to-use-proxies-to-get-more-backlinks\/\">10+ Ways to Use Proxies to Get More Backlinks<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr\/>\n<h2 id=\"the-warning\" class=\"ftwp-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Warning\"><\/span>The Warning<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019ve reached the point where a proxy warning is necessary. The warning applies always and to every proxy. Ready?<\/p>\n<p>Proxies can be used for very illegal things. You can bring down Government websites and infiltrate famous companies with proxies.<\/p>\n<p>They are powerful and yet, in many ways, are the backbone of a functioning internet. The sort of things you\u2019ll be doing with SEO software application won\u2019t destroy the internet, but certain aspects of those actions can get you into trouble.<\/p>\n<p>Automating backlinks, falsifying articles with bots, and trying to cheat <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/PageRank\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PageRank<\/a> stats can get you in trouble. If you ask a provider a point-blank question about grey or black hat tactics, they will probably not want to do business with you. If they do not care, they\u2019ll o\ufb03cially say in the email that their proxies shouldn\u2019t be used for that, and then ask how many you want to buy.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the fragile nature of proxy use, this is always a tight rope to walk. Do what you will, but be aware of the consequences and don\u2019t say I didn\u2019t warn you.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2 id=\"providers-with-many-ips\" class=\"ftwp-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Providers_with_Many_IPs\"><\/span>Providers with Many IPs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now that you\u2019re properly warned, we can get into some specific proxy traits a good provider will have. The first is to find a provider that boasts a huge number of IPs.<\/p>\n<p>With SEO software you\u2019re typically running a massive number of requests per minute in order to retrieve data. The keyword harvester is a good example. Depending on how many results you\u2019re looking for, you\u2019ll want 10-100 dedicated, elite private proxies and need a provider that can provide that number. That number alone is not so high.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/how-many-proxies-do-i-need-for-my-application\/\">How Many Proxies Do I Need for My Application?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><picture class=\"aligncenter wp-image-254 size-full perfmatters-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs.jpg.webp 1075w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-300x52.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-768x134.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-1024x178.jpg.webp 1024w\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%201075%20187'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1075px) 100vw, 1075px\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%201075%20187'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Proxy Providers with Many IPs\" width=\"1075\" height=\"187\" data-src=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs.jpg 1075w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-300x52.jpg 300w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-768x134.jpg 768w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-1024x178.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1075px) 100vw, 1075px\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<\/picture>\n<noscript><picture class=\"aligncenter wp-image-254 size-full\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs.jpg.webp 1075w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-300x52.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-768x134.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-1024x178.jpg.webp 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1075px) 100vw, 1075px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs.jpg\" alt=\"Proxy Providers with Many IPs\" width=\"1075\" height=\"187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs.jpg 1075w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-300x52.jpg 300w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-768x134.jpg 768w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Providers-with-Many-IPs-1024x178.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1075px) 100vw, 1075px\"\/>\n<\/picture>\n<\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll also want a provider that refreshes those IPs monthly, or on request, if they stop working. Even though keyword harvesting is perfectly legal, Google does not like it when bots send millions of requests. Your IPs can get suspended or banned, in which case you\u2019ll need to ask (or buy) more. This means the provider will need a backup cache of proxies for every client they have, which starts to add up.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/proxies-for-scraping-google\/\">Proxies for Preventing Bans and Captchas When Scraping Google<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Lastly, a provider with a large number of IPs and subnets (groups of proxies starting with the same numbers) will be able to do more for you. Often a proxy provider will say their proxies work great for SEO software, and you find out three months in that some of them just keep failing. You can\u2019t figure out why, and the provider can\u2019t figure out why.<\/p>\n<p>A proxy provider with many IPs and subnets will be able to thwart this issue by providing you di\ufb00erent IPs from di\ufb00erent subnets so you can test things out. This is invaluable and will help you build a concrete way to deal with proxies.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2 id=\"socks-vs-http-vs-https-proxies\" class=\"ftwp-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"SOCKS_vs_HTTP_vs_HTTPS_Proxies\"><\/span>SOCKS vs. HTTP vs. HTTPS Proxies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The above are three different types of proxies. HTTP is the most common and what many providers have. SOCKS and HTTPS are more secure, less common and typically more expensive than HTTP because they provide much higher security. They also function better for certain types of connections, which can be invaluable for SEO functionality.<\/p>\n<p>Granted, the additional security and specific functionality are often more in the black hat realm of proxy use, so I won\u2019t get into details. In general, it\u2019s a great idea to get <a href=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/http-proxies-vs-socks-proxies\/\">SOCKS and HTTPS proxies<\/a> if you can because they are more secure. Your actions won\u2019t be traced back to you, and Google bans them a lot less often because they are not as common.<\/p>\n<p>This is another case of \u201cAsk Your Provider\u201d to find out why type of proxies they have on tap. Most that have SOCKS advertise that fact, but it\u2019s not always the case with HTTPS. Usually, a provider will roll all three into a bundle and ask what kind you want when you sign up.<\/p>\n<p>This is another great way to test IP processes to find the best ones that work, and at the least, you\u2019ll have more options and security, which is never a bad thing.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2 id=\"residential-ips-over-data-center-ips\" class=\"ftwp-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Residential_IPs_Over_Data_Center_IPs\"><\/span>Residential IPs Over Data Center IPs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of the bigger conversations in the proxy world today is residential IPs vs. data center IPs.

The theory goes that <a href=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/residential-proxy-guide\/\"><strong>residential IPs are seen as human requests<\/strong><\/a>, while data center IPs are seen as bot requests.<\/p>\n<p>This doesn\u2019t mean that Google denies every single data center IP that tries to come through its door\u2014hardly. But if you have 100 IPs all from the same subnet pinging Google too often, it will be quicker to ban and captcha you, which will stop your harvesting in its tracks.<\/p>\n<p>And the ethics are a little sketchy at times, so be aware of that.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2 id=\"in-summary\" class=\"ftwp-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_Summary\"><\/span>In Summary<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Those are some solid steps on the path to finding the best proxy for your SEO application.
