Proxies Showing Different Country

[Duepty21]

So I have now purchased static residential proxies from IPRoyal.

However when selecting UK Proxies, on some IP checks these are showing in Netherlands & Ukraine, and on others they are showing in UK.

Both dolphin and incognition are seeing them from outside the UK.

Now I can use the Royal residential proxies that I can set a rotation time for, between 1 second and 7 days, these are city level targeting, and showing correct, however are payable per GB, and also I believe can be shared. (These are from peoples own homes or something).

I am unsure on the safest choice here for multiple social media profiles for each "Creator/identity". Ie 1 Facebook, 1 insta, 1 twitter per proxy.


Am I safer to use the Royal Proxie, with the rotation set to a set length (if so how often), or the static showing on some checkers in a foreign country?

 

[Duepty21]

Thought I would Add.
Certain up checkers show foreign, and others UK!

Being told this is down to vague data from ip.

Got everything else in place to get going, other than this holding me up massively.

(I can be an over thinker/pre planner)

static residential proxies . no need to rotating, keep same IP will be the best

 

[Duepty21]

Yeah problem is the static residential proxies are showing in uk on some ip check websites, and other European countries on other up check site / anti detect browsers.

The fraud score is zero, however the country issue is bothering me. Should it be bothering me?

It depends on database. Click.

 

[Duepty21]

Ok so should I still use these proxies and change location / time zone in the anti detect?

Or find different proxies before creating socials?

Thank you for the information mate

Location tracking via IP isn't street-level accurate by any means. That said, I don't think it should be that dramatically far apart from the expected location, certainly not that far away from the UK. As for the IP rotation, you'll only really want that if you need

Yeah these two IPs I have are showing on most providers as Kiev-Ukrain & Netherlands.

Although one is now showing on most as UK.

Just don’t want the IPs to be no good and start using them for long term accounts.

Should I roll on and use them?! Or find another New IP/IP provider?

sadly some system will show a dif location than the 1 you hoped for

I had similar situations in the past but they were provider issues. Residential providers I am using are multinational companies (many of them are) and sometimes it happens that they reassign IP pool to partner/daughter company located in different country. For that reason you can see you IP located in different country until routing data and IP pool is updated in corresponding databases like RIPE. Also, some databases used in "ip to location" are not that accurate.

So should I get a different proxy, or still use it bud?

70% show right location, 30% wrong .

Let me know your thoughts please (As above for long term social media).

Thank you for your reply, do you use these IPs still and under what circumstances?

 

[AlexAkimbo]

Nope. I just move them to my blacklist and that's it.

 

[Duepty21]

Nope. I just move them to my blacklist and that's it.

Thank you, I will only use IPs that show the correct location in which case.

 

[AlexAkimbo]

Thank you, I will only use IPs that show the correct location in which case.

Just make sure what database is used for location checking and that's up to date.

Do you mean for the anti detect browser? Or social platforms sorry?

On this bit, that's down to whether or not you can use those "locations" without affecting your purposes too harshly. Otherwise, I recommend playing it safe and avoid them whenever possible.

you need real residential ip address.
