Best IG socks proxy? needs un/pw authorization

[Da92ua]

I've been researching proxies for the last week and don't seem to be getting anywhere. I need ~5-10 socks proxies with username and password authorization (req'd by bot). Best practice for IG is presumably residential proxies, yes? Am willing to pay a bit more for the right fit, but prob $10/proxy max(?)

FYI-these are for new IG accounts that are being built up (to last/aren't disposable). So careful botting, and quality proxies with cautious settings are important...

Anyone care to share their favorite proxy providers that fit these parameters? Thx!

residential proxies are grey/black/hacked by default so I would be very sceptical with them.. Great article by Ghost on the issue; http://ghostproxies.com/blog/2016/06/residential-datacenter/

You should research about mobile proxies. If you use them together with a mobile simulation (instead a desktop browser), this would solve your problems.

I've looked for those specifically but the only "mobile" proxies i've found are via Russian cellco providers. definitely not ideal. Can you point me towards a recommendation..?

Ok so, data center proxies are a-OK, says a datacenter proxy provider.

Regardless, ghostproxy doesn't seem to support socks so they're out.. still back where i started unfortunately.

Data center (server) IP address space is the worst you can use, because they will be detected as "spam" pretty early (or they are already blacklisted).

Understood, hence my note of skepticism. So, to your earlier comment, any mobile proxy suggestions..?

advise the service to purchase a proxy from their experience who actively uses

Individually I understand what these words mean, but strung together as so and you lost me buddy.

So this bot only uses socks and does not use http proxies, and also it only uses login/pass format and doesn't work with just IP bound proxies with no authentication?

That's how it appears with Instazood..

That doesn't make sense. Usually bots use http but not socks and sometimes both socks and http but socks only I've never come across except custom bots I made myself.

Well it's the case with Instazood, and my question still hasn't really been answered
