<\/span>Oxylabs Pros<\/span><\/h2>\n

Let start this review stating the good sides of Oxylabs \u2013 both the obvious one stated on their websites and the one we founded out on our own.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Enough Pool of IP and Location<\/span><\/h3>\n

One of the aspects proxy service boasts with is the number of proxies in their pool and their network. Oxylabs is one of the boastful ones in this regard \u2013 and yes, it is useful boasting. Oxylabs has one of the largest pool of IP in the market.<\/p>\n

They have over 30 million residential proxies in their residential IP pool and over 2 million in their datacenter Pool. This makes it the second-largest residential provider in the market by a number of proxies.<\/p>\n

\"Number\n<\/picture>\n

Aside the fact that they have a large number of residential IPs, one thing you\u2019ll come to appreciate about their proxies is their geographical distribution \u2013 Oxylabs proxies are distributed across the globe with countries like the US, UK, India, Brazil, Turkey, Germany, Russia, France, Mexico, and Spain has over one million proxies each.<\/p>\n

Other countries have a sizable number too. They have an interactive map (the above is a screenshot of it) that hovering your map over a country will display the number of Oxylabs proxies in that country.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Geo-Targeting<\/span><\/h3>\n

When you subscribe to Oxylabs residential proxies, you get the capability to choose a location that you will use proxies from. For many proxy providers, targeting countries is the only targeting option you have. But for Oxylabs, a new level of opportunity is opened to you. Their proxies are not only country proxies, but they also have city proxies as well, and as such, you can go specific and target a particular city \u2013 and they have proxies in major cities in the world. For example, as a sneaker copper, instead of targeting US proxies, you have the option of targeting New York if the server of the sneaker site is located in New York.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Decent Scraping Performance<\/span><\/h3>\n

Oxylabs was developed by experts in web scraping, and as such, it is expected that it performs well in crawling and scraping data from the Internet.
