Why mobile proxies outperform residential proxies

Every port is a physical device with a SIM card. You deploy a screaming frog proxy to bypass strict rate limits that instantly block datacenter IPs during site audits.

Real devices with carrier SIM cards

Traffic flows through physical smartphones with real SIM cards. Target websites see a regular mobile user, letting you extract full site architectures without hitting annoying firewall blocks.

  • 100% Real devices
  • 0% Emulation & VPN
  • < 1% Block rate

40+ countries and carriers

Pick country and carrier for precise geo targeting.

  • US United States 16,930,000 IP
  • IT Italy 5,120,000 IP
  • TH Thailand 1,390,000 IP
  • NL Netherlands 1,120,000 IP
  • ID Indonesia 790,000 IP

Real hardware

The complete mobile channel is 100% yours with zero shared neighbors. No stranger's requests trigger captchas, keeping your audit speed fast and your crawler unblocked.

IP rotation: API and timer

Rotate IPs via API or timer directly inside Screaming Frog SEO Spider. One clean address per window stops sudden rate limits, keeping your site audits completely safe.

Unlimited traffic

Crawl enterprise sites and render JavaScript without tracking a bandwidth counter. You pay a flat rate per port instead of burning money on per-GB data bills.

Stable geolocation

No sudden spikes that trigger anti-fraud systems.

Use cases

Who should use mobile proxies

Large-Scale Crawling

Crawl massive enterprise websites without severe rate limits.

Your advantage

You crawl hundreds of thousands of pages on strict platforms without firewall blocks. Mobile connections look like ordinary smartphone traffic. You complete your SEO audit on schedule and protect your crawler from sudden bans.

Success formula

Route your tool through a mobile port and configure automatic API rotation. Adjust the request speed and HTTP headers to match real smartphone behavior.

Competitor Analysis

Extract metadata and product availability without shadowbans.

Your advantage

You extract exact prices and metadata from rival sites that aggressively block bots. A Screaming Frog proxy running on a cellular IP bypasses anti-fraud systems. You get accurate market data and save your budget on CAPTCHA resolution.

Success formula

Use a dedicated port with a sticky session for deep category extraction. Hold the IP steady while parsing heavy directories, then rotate it via API link.

JavaScript Rendering

Render heavy frameworks and check technical metrics safely.

Your advantage

You render heavy web applications to verify tags and links on heavily protected domains. Carrier networks carry maximum trust. The target server returns actual page content instead of security challenges. This keeps your software alive and secures accurate metrics.

Success formula

Enable JS rendering in your crawler and apply proper timeout settings. Rotate the IP automatically to handle the extra server load without raising suspicion.

Localized Audits

Verify geo-redirects and regional content accuracy.

Your advantage

You verify regional redirects and local landing pages exactly as a real resident experiences them. A reliable Screaming Frog proxy setup bypasses geographic restrictions. Your reports show precise localized data instead of generic international stubs.

Success formula

Connect to the target location and add matching language headers in the software. Keep delays random so the crawl mimics human navigation.

What our clients say

Real feedback from people who use our proxies every day.

  • We finally ditched per-GB residential proxies for our Playwright stack. The API rotation took like 20 minutes to hook up. One huge tip: bump your timeout settings! It is a real 5G network so it is not datacenter fast, but the unlimited data saves us an absolute fortune on scraping catalogs

  • Perfect for local SEO tracking because the city targeting is spot on. I love that it is a flat rate because bandwidth billing is a nightmare when you scale. You can only run a limited number of concurrent threads on one port though, so we just buy more ports as we grow. Spinning them up is fast.

  • Using them for TikTok and IG scraping. The dynamic rotation is great and stopped our chain bans. Just do not try to download videos during peak hours lol. The ping spikes are real. For pulling JSON data it works perfectly fine

  • We used to lose accounts in droves due to "impossible movement" triggers, and this was inevitable with server proxies. We switched everything to mobile ports here, and the problem simply disappeared. It turns out that when Facebook sees a real mobile IP from the right city, it doesn't have to ask any unnecessary questions.

  • The proxies are super clean and our shadowbans are totally gone. BUT there is no rotation scheduler in the API into your antidetect browser. Great quality IPs but you definitely need some technical skills to set it up right.

FAQ

FAQ

Popular questions about mobile proxies and our service.

What is the technical difference between your mobile proxies and standard residential ones?

The primary distinction lies in the Autonomous System Number and the hardware infrastructure. Our mobile proxies route your traffic exclusively through physical 3G, 4G, and 5G modems connected to cellular networks of actual Mobile Network Operators. This means your connection originates from a cellular ASN rather than an internet service provider. While residential networks route traffic through home broadband connections, our solution leverages the Carrier-Grade NAT infrastructure inherent to cellular environments.

Under Carrier-Grade NAT, a single public IPv4 address is simultaneously shared among thousands of legitimate cellular subscribers. Anti-fraud systems recognize this structural feature and assign these IP addresses the highest possible trust score. They cannot block a cellular IP without risking collateral damage to countless real users. Consequently, our mobile infrastructure offers superior resilience against aggressive anti-bot algorithms compared to any residential alternative, making it highly effective for complex automation tasks where maintaining a good reputation is critical.

How does IP rotation work, and what are the differences between your Lite and Regular plans?

Our rotation mechanics depend entirely on the plan you select, as we offer two distinct approaches to session management.

The Lite plan provides access to a shared port, where a single physical modem is distributed among a maximum of five users. On this tier, the system performs an automatic IP rotation every 2 to 5 minutes. You cannot manually control this interval or reboot the hardware, making it suitable for tasks that require a constant influx of new addresses without strict session persistence.

The Regular plan grants you exclusive access to a dedicated device for the duration of your rental period. This provides complete control over your session management. You can maintain a sticky session to keep the same IP address, trigger a rotation manually via an API link, or set a custom timer for automatic changes. Additionally, the Regular plan allows you to reboot the physical device if needed and includes priority support.

How can I configure my infrastructure for SEO monitoring using your platform?

Integrating our cellular IPs into your SEO monitoring workflow allows you to analyze search engine results pages exactly as they appear to mobile users in specific regions. To configure a screaming frog proxy setup, follow this sequence:

  1. Navigate to the application network settings menu.
  2. Input the designated host and port parameters provided in the dashboard.
  3. Provide your authentication credentials or ensure your server IP is whitelisted.

By rotating your IP address through our cellular networks, you avoid rate limiting while collecting accurate rank tracking metrics. Mobile search results often differ significantly from desktop results, so every single datum extracted during your crawl reflects the genuine mobile index, providing reliable insights for mobile optimization. We recommend using our Regular plan for this task, as you can align the rotation link with your crawler settings to request a fresh IP address after a specific number of URL requests.

Do you offer a free trial for mobile networks or bill based on bandwidth usage?

We do not provide free trials for our mobile IPs, nor do we offer free cellular proxy plans. If you simply want to test our dashboard interface or integration logic, we do offer one free datacenter proxy per user through a widget on our website, but this does not apply to our cellular network infrastructure.

Regarding billing, our pricing model is strictly based on time and port allocation, not on bandwidth consumption. We do not charge per gigabyte of traffic on any of our plans. Both the Lite and Regular tiers include unmetered traffic for the duration of your rental, which can range from 1 day to 30 days, with a minimum billing cycle of 24 hours.

If you encounter a technical issue within the first hour of your purchase, we provide a full refund according to our policy. After the first hour, refunds are calculated on a pro-rata basis minus the utilized time, and we typically offer a proxy replacement first. We also issue cashback in the form of promo credits to your internal balance after a completed rental period, which you can apply to future renewals.

Will using your mobile proxies prevent my social media accounts from getting banned?

Our infrastructure provides the highest level of network legitimacy, but it is only one component of a secure multi-accounting strategy. Our service successfully solves the network identity layer by providing an IP address with a cellular ASN and a low fraud score. However, modern anti-fraud systems utilize multi-layered detection models that analyze much more than just your connection.

To maintain different accounts safely, you must combine our IPs with a reliable anti-detect browser to manage your browser fingerprint, including parameters like canvas, fonts, and WebGL. Furthermore, you must ensure behavioral consistency. An account mimicking a human must perform realistic navigation patterns, include randomized delays, and maintain geographical correlation between the IP location, browser timezone, and system language. If you assign a single dedicated port to one browser profile and practice careful account farming, you significantly minimize the risk of bans. Mixing multiple accounts on a single port simultaneously without understanding session isolation will eventually lead to cross-account linking.

What networking protocols are supported and how do I manage my connection credentials?

We fully support standard networking protocols across all our active ports to ensure maximum compatibility with your software stack. When configuring your setup, you can utilize the following options:

  • HTTP and HTTPS protocols, which serve as the industry standard for general web browsing, basic scraping operations, and standard API interactions.
  • SOCKS5 protocol, which provides lower level TCP and UDP connection handling, making it an absolute requirement for anti-detect browsers and complex automation.

When establishing a connection, you can choose between two authentication methods. The standard method utilizes a login and password combination, which is highly portable for remote servers. Alternatively, we support IP whitelisting, binding the proxy access directly to your designated client IP address. You can manage these settings directly through our client portal, enabling you to switch methods depending on the security requirements of your current deployment architecture.

What should I expect regarding connection speed, and how fast does your technical support respond?

When transitioning from datacenter networks to cellular infrastructure, you should expect a noticeable difference in connection speed and latency. Our infrastructure relies on physical cellular networks, meaning your latency will typically range between 50 and 300 milliseconds, and bandwidth will fluctuate based on the local cell tower load. This throughput is more than sufficient for multi-accounting, data mining, and sneaker bots, but it is not optimized for heavy video streaming or massive file downloads.

If you experience severe connection drops or your IP address fails to rotate correctly, our technical support team operates around the clock. Our target time for a first response is 4 hours. If we identify a hardware failure or a persistent technical issue on our end that cannot be resolved promptly, our standard procedure is to offer a replacement port to ensure your workflow remains uninterrupted before processing any potential refund requests.

Why a big crawl dies halfway through

The SEO Spider is fast, and that speed is exactly what gets it noticed. Ten threads against a mid-size store from one office address, and somewhere around the five-thousandth URL the responses turn into 429s, 403s and empty bodies. The report comes out half finished, the client waits another day, and the hours already spent on the crawl are written off.

The nastier scenario is not a block at all. Some sites keep answering, but serve a stripped or cached version to addresses they consider suspicious — and the audit then reports missing titles and thin content that real visitors never see. Fixing phantom issues costs far more than a proxy port, which is why the origin of the IP matters more than the raw speed of the channel.

Datacenter ranges are the first thing to be throttled, and per-gigabyte residential plans quietly drain the budget once JavaScript rendering is switched on. A carrier IP sits in the opposite corner: typical fraud score of a mobile address is 0–15 out of 100, against 75–100 for a hosting one. That gap is the difference between a crawl that finishes tonight and a crawl you restart three times.

What a mobile IP changes for the SEO Spider

Requests leave through the address of a real cellular operator, so the target treats the crawler as one more phone on the network. Because a single carrier address is shared by hundreds of subscribers at once, aggressive sites lean on soft measures instead of hard bans — the crawl slows down at worst, rather than dying. On targets where residential pools drop below 80% success rate, a mobile port usually keeps 95–99% of URLs answering, and that is the number that decides whether the report is publishable.

There is a second, purely SEO benefit. Mobile-first indexing means the version Google actually evaluates is the mobile one, and plenty of sites still ship different markup, different internal links and different meta tags to smartphones. Crawling from a carrier address with a smartphone user-agent shows that version directly, so the audit reflects the pages that earn rankings instead of a desktop copy nobody indexes.

Pro-tip: run the same section twice — once with the default agent from a regular connection, once with a smartphone agent through a mobile port — and diff the two exports. Every mismatch in canonicals, hreflang or meta robots is a real indexing bug you can bill for, found in one extra hour of machine time.

How to set up a Screaming Frog proxy on Windows, macOS and Ubuntu

The setup is the same on all three builds, and it takes about two minutes. The tool stores proxy details globally, not per crawl, so once it is configured every project inherits it until you change it back.

  1. Open Configuration → System → Proxy in the SEO Spider.
  2. Enter the host and the HTTP port of your mobile port.
  3. Restart the application — on Windows and macOS alike the setting is picked up only after a relaunch.
  4. Switch to List mode and crawl an IP-echo URL to confirm the exit address.
  5. Check that address once through an IP intelligence service: the ASN type must read as a carrier, not hosting.

That last step is the one most people skip, and it is the cheapest insurance in the whole stack. If a provider sells "mobile" but the check returns a hosting ASN, the crawl will be throttled exactly like before and the money is gone. Verifying takes thirty seconds and saves the whole rental period.

Important detail: the proxy fields in the Spider accept an address and a port, but no login and password. Trying to force login:pass into the host line simply breaks the connection. Use IP whitelisting instead — bind your working address once on the provider side, and the crawler connects with no credentials at all. Both authentication methods are supported here, so login:password stays available for Python, Scrapy or an antidetect browser on the same port.

One more compatibility note: the SEO Spider speaks HTTP(S) to a proxy and will not use SOCKS5. A port that offers both protocols covers the whole toolchain — HTTP for the crawler, SOCKS5 for antidetect profiles — so there is no need to rent two different products for one project.

Tuning speed so the crawl actually finishes

A cellular channel gives 50–300 ms of latency and 5–50 Mbit/s, which is plenty for HTML but unforgiving of a 20-thread stampede. A single device comfortably handles a handful of parallel streams; push past that and the timeouts you see are your own, not the site's. Dialing the settings down once means the crawl runs unattended overnight instead of being babysat.

Setting in the SpiderValue for a mobile portWhat it buys
Speed → Max Threads2–5No self-inflicted timeouts, stable response codes across the whole crawl
Speed → Max URI/s2–3The pace looks like browsing, so rate limiting never kicks in
System → Response Timeout30–60 sSlow pages are recorded, not dropped as errors
System → 5xx Retries3Occasional network hiccups get retried instead of polluting the report

JavaScript rendering multiplies traffic by an order of magnitude, because every page pulls scripts, fonts and images. On per-gigabyte billing that is where the invoice explodes; on a port rented for a period the volume simply does not enter the calculation. Rendering a 50,000-URL web project costs the same as crawling raw HTML.

Rotation: keep one IP or change it on schedule

The crawler holds a single proxy for the entire session, so a pool that rotates on every request is the wrong tool — mid-crawl address changes produce inconsistent responses and broken sessions on staging environments behind a login. What works is a dedicated port whose IP you control yourself.

ModeWhen it winsPlan
Sticky sessionCrawling behind authentication, comparing two runs on the same addressRegular
Change by linkA 403 wall appeared — new IP on demand, then resume the crawlRegular
Timer rotationLong overnight crawls of hundreds of thousands of URLsRegular
Automatic every 2–5 minShort scans, position checks, one-off list crawlsLite

For SERP work the logic flips. Checking positions in Google from a specific city and carrier benefits from frequent changes, because each request then looks like a different subscriber in the same location — and the ranking data reflects the local mobile results rather than a personalized desktop page.

Lite or Regular for crawling work

Lite is a shared port: one device serves up to five users, the IP rotates automatically every 2–5 minutes, and neither the rotation nor a device reboot is under your control. For a quick audit of a few thousand URLs that is enough, and it is the cheaper entry point.

Regular hands over the whole device for the rental period. Sticky sessions, rotation by link, rotation by timer, a reboot button and priority support come with it — everything a multi-day crawl of a large web property needs. Agencies running client audits back to back tend to keep one Regular port per active project, so a stalled crawl on one site never touches another.

What it costs and how billing works

Billing here is per port for a period: one day, seven days or thirty days, with 24 hours as the minimum. Unlimited traffic is included on both plans, which means gigabytes are never metered — not that the cellular channel becomes infinitely fast. Prices depend on the country and the carrier and are shown on the tariff page, so the cost of a crawl is known before it starts.

After a paid rental ends, cashback is credited to the internal balance as promo credits, which offsets the next project. If a port turns out to be technically faulty, a replacement is offered first, and refunds follow the refund and replacement policy — inside the first hour after access is issued the payment is returned in full, later minus the time already used. Support works around the clock with a four-hour target for the first reply, so a broken crawl on a Sunday deadline is not left waiting until Monday.

Free access covers one server proxy from the widget on the site, useful for a smoke test of the setup path. Mobile ports are paid from the first day — worth knowing before planning a trial.

Mistakes that waste a rental

  • Forgetting the restart. The Spider ignores new proxy details until it relaunches, and the first "clean" crawl goes out from the office address.
  • Geo mismatch. A German port with a US locale and timezone in the crawl setup is an instant red flag; keep country, language and agent consistent.
  • One port for everything. A Screaming Frog proxy shared with antidetect profiles links the sessions together, and a warning earned by the crawler lands on the accounts.
  • Maximum threads by default. Twenty streams through one device produce a report full of fake timeouts.
  • Skipping the ASN check. Thirty seconds of verification prevents paying for a hosting address dressed as a carrier one.

None of this replaces the rest of the stack. A mobile address solves the network layer; browser fingerprints, request pacing and geo consistency stay your responsibility, and for account-related work an antidetect browser remains part of the setup. For crawling, though, the network layer is where 90% of failures live.

Set the port once, cap the threads, verify the exit address, and the audit finishes on the first attempt. A screaming frog proxy on a carrier IP does not make the crawler faster — it makes the crawl complete, the data honest, and the invoice predictable.
