Data Gathering

Why you need proxies for data gathering

SEO and marketing agencies, travel companies, airlines, hotels, car sharing companies etc. turn to collecting stock market data for their clients. Data gathering processes include scraping, crawling, parsing which mean retrieving open data from websites. Scraping on a mass scale plays a big part in today’s era of Internet and digitech.

In order to stay in a business game and provide customers with quality products, companies need to rate their goods and services with a look at current market trends. However, websites monitor data collectors and, once they identify you by IP address as a competitor, they may block or deliberately misinform you. Sometimes website administrators completely ban certain IP addresses by geolocation. To clear the barrier, you need to disguise yourself as their client.

By using real whitelisted proxy servers, you can reduce the chances of getting blocked by the site and proceed with data gathering efficiently. If you have connected to a proxy, you can easily collect your target audience’s data from around the globe. You can submit multiple requests to the site at one time using multiple IPs granted by the proxy provider. This approach minimizes the risk of a ban during parsing or crawling.

Residential proxies are homeowners’ and public Wi-Fi IPs. They promise maximum disguise as a real user and an opportunity to avoid bans and restrictions. Mobile proxies use mobile data. They are real mobile IT users’ IP addresses; they are very trusted by search engines. Marketers and SEO specialists heavily rely on our proxies in order to collect stock market data in big volumes.
