SEO proxies like you have never seen before
It’s not a surprise that SEO proxies are very useful and used by many various businesses around the globe. With SEO proxies you can do site audits, use proxies when you’re working with backlinks and link building, you can track your SEO ranking globally, and do many other things. But there are more and in this article, I want to discuss the new Search Engine proxies that Smartproxy is offering — how they differ from casual SEO proxies and how they can benefit the business?
What are Search Engine proxies?
Search Engine proxies are a type of proxies that you can use to gather SERP data with a 100% success rate and use it to your advantage. In general, you can look at these proxies as web scraping tools and proxy servers combined together. That means that while using these proxies you don’t need some extra services to scrape SEO-related data from Google and you can retrieve paid and organic data, find out relevant and needed information about keyword ranking as well as track your and your competitors' keyword performance. Besides, you can monitor your SEO performance and the prices, so you will be able to gather valuable data for pricing intelligence and find needed solutions to successfully grow your business with the help of SEO.
How to use Search Engine proxies?
So how can you integrate these proxies into your work and use them? It’s pretty simple. After you purchase these proxies you have to choose your preferred data delivery method (HTML or JASON). Then you have to specify your target — what data needs to be extracted and where it could be found. You can also add some extra perimeters if that’s needed, such as at what period of time the data should be (“no older than…”) or what types of keywords the data should hold, etc. Pretty much this is it because everything else will be done by Smartproxy. They will collect the required data and you will receive it in your chosen format. It’s really as easy as it sounds.
Why should you choose Smartproxy’s Search Engine proxies?
Apart from the fact that it is pretty easy to use this Smartproxy’s solution, there are some more advantages. Gathering data, even with web scraping tools and knowledge, is still tricky and one of the biggest obstacles is IP blocking — websites notice your web scraping tool, non-human activity online, and a high number of the same requests sent over and over again with the same IP address. The result — you get your IP blocked and you might lose all of your work that was done.
When using these Search Engine proxies, you don’t need to worry about IP blocking because Smartproxy filters proxies from their 40 million residential proxy pool, and chooses only the ones that will bring you a 100% success rate — you can be sure of that.
What I found especially great when working with these Search Engine proxies from Smartproxy is that when using them you pay only for successful requests and that means that this smart scrape makes your proxies for Google use cost-efficient. This is a pretty great solution indeed because simple residential proxies that you use for SEO tasks cost a lot of money and you’re risking blocking many IPs. But Smartproxy Search Engine proxies provide you with needed results and you don’t need to worry about the usage of proxies — they will take care of that.
