As you already know, Smartproxy remains one of the leaders in the proxy market. And has constantly been building and fine-tuning its service to make it easier for you to leave your restrictions on the Internet behind.
For now, we have some juicy updates from Smartproxy. We’ll cover the following on this page.

New Residential Proxy Pricing Model: Pay-As-You-Go for Beginner
Smartproxy remains one of our favorite residential proxy networks. It has one of the largest proxy pools with 40 million IPs from about 195 regions. It does support geo-targeting at different levels (country, state, and cities). The proxies it offers are highly reliable and undetectable. From tests carried out, they remain the fastest in the residential proxy market so far.
In the past, all you need is $75, and you get 5GB of bandwidth to use the service. This is already cheap as the pricing of credible competitors’ is way more than that — usually above $300.
To make their service even more affordable, they introduced the Pay-As-You-Go option. With this, you can purchase as small as 1GB for $12.5. This means there is no minimum monthly or yearly commitment.
Introducing Smartproxy Dedicated Datacenter Proxies
Smartproxy now offers Dedicated Datacenter (DDC) proxies. These proxies are some of the most reliable solutions in the market, just like their residential proxies. Being dedicated proxies, you’ll not have to share any proxy allocated to you with anyone, thereby enjoying the bare metal performance alone. There are over 400K US IPs from 1500 subnets in the DDC proxy pool, you can use it for GB solution,
Unlike their residential proxies, there’s no limit to the amount of bandwidth you can consume. You’re also allowed to create unlimited connections and threads. You have the option to choose between sequential or non-sequential IPs. They have got support for IP randomization, and with their IP replacement feature, you can replace up to 100 percent of the IPs allocated to you.
Pricing for this is cheap and affordable, as you can get started with $40 for 20 IPs. The more IPs you purchase, the cheaper the price per IP becomes.
Introducing Smartproxy Scraping APIs
Even with proxies, scraping has never been as easy as it is portrayed. You’ll still have to deal with blocks, captchas, Javascript execution, and other anti-scraping systems. There are also issues of parsing data that could be messy depending on how complex your target site is. That’s why Smartproxy developed Scraping APIs to help you collect data from the web.
