I'm just getting started with tiktok and other social media like tiktok. I'm just getting started with a small Account number to learn. How much do I need to spend. Let's say for example I want to start with 5 Accounts each (tiktok and snap). How much do I need to spend for a residential proxy (if res is enough)? And how do I find a good provider?
 
you typically need to spend around $50 per month per account on residential proxies, depending on the provider and the quality of the service
 
A residential proxy for 5 TikTok and 5 Snap accounts usually costs around $20–$50 a month.
 
A cheap residential plan with a few GB is enough, usually around $10 20 month if youre not heavy on data. Pick a provider with stable sticky IPs and decent country coverage not the cheapest one webshare or soax are solid starters.

Look for residential proxies with reliable IP rotation and good coverage spending a bit more for stability is usually worth it especially when managing multiple accounts.
 
Thanks for all your responses. But I found Proxy sellers here where you can buy a static residential proxy and it costs like 5 bucks per ip... Are those not good enough?

Those will likely do the job. Id suggest buying aged accounts then purchase static ISP proxies to manage the accounts

What is the difference between static ISP proxies and Residential?
 
A good proxy doesn't have to cost a fortune, but you also shouldn't go for the cheapest option because they tend to be slow or shared with too many other providers. A good dedicated proxy typically costs between $1 and $3 per month per IP address, depending on the provider and the country you choose. Those based in the United States or Europe are usually a bit more expensive, but also more stable.

If you're looking for something more professional to manage multiple accounts, providers that offer larger packages usually have lower prices per IP address, although this depends on your specific needs. The important thing is to look at the provider's reputation and ensure they are truly private. When a service is too cheap, it almost always means you're sharing the IP address with many people, which can lead to blocked or unreliable connections.
 
This problem is actually quite tricky, and it's rare to find the right solution on the first try. I also tried many times. A reliable service provider is crucial, followed by the price, and then clean and stable residential IPs. For 5 TikTok accounts and 5 Snapchat accounts, a monthly plan of $10 to $15 is sufficient for stable use. Of course, if you only need to test, you can choose a cheaper plan, but this comes with significant risks.
 
Residential proxies are among the most expensive. I would recommend finding a good provider to start with. I'd test everything with a budget of $20-30 first, and only then try creating more accounts. You can find a provider in the marketplace section.
 
I can only recommend using good residential proxies. You can choose them in the forum section: https://www.blackhatworld.com/forums/proxies-for-sale.112/
You also need a good anti-detect browser. The one I've used is Octo Browser.
If you don't use unique fingerprints, your accounts are likely to get shadowbanned and won't receive views on new videos.
 
It all depends on the country you choose and your internet provider. Proxies in Latin American countries are usually much cheaper than those in the USA or Europe, so if you don't need a "premium" location, you can save quite a bit. Ultimately, the cost varies depending on the quality of the provider and the stability you need to manage multiple accounts.

webshare static residential is what I use, never had issues, just use the private ones
 
For platforms like TikTok and Snapchat, many users get better stability with mobile IPs. Regardless of type, focus on clean IPs and consistency. It’s always best to test any provider on a small scale first and only expand once you know it works for your setup.
 
Although you don't need a lot of data to do this, you can start by purchasing a cheap residential proxy. The maximum cost will be 15-$25.

Residential proxies are real connections from real users devices that you 'borrow'. ISP proxies use the same residential ISP's that real users use like Sprint, At&t etc but they are hosted in datacenters so you have a fast stable connection
 
I do not wanna come off as high on a horse or anything, but none of the replies even define what a good proxy is.

I have done my fair share of multi accounting and was sometimes paid to try and sometimes did it out of own curiousity, from small scales

Where and how do you check the quality?

Which protocol? How to make sure to not leak an IP? Does the provider clean their headers for http proxies, hows connectivity quality and do they rotate IPs mid session on non mobile proxies despite the promises? For this kind of stuff you need various testing tools, including a bot.

If mobile proxy + mobile emulator, you will get but be banned pretty quickly, been there, preciselly on TikTok.

Residential proxy, matter of time before you get assigned an IP that has been seen on the platform on another user or an IP which is blacklisted.

Static ISP? Many, many of their ASNs are known to Google and Cloudflare and the social media platforms.

Proxy selection is not easy unless you know preciselly to test them, which takes time and understanding.

The best proxy you could ever have is hosting your own where you can spoof the whole data packets at the router layer, but that is prohibitevelly expensive and pretty complicated, so you have to work with whats out there, the plug and play providers, theres less than a handful which cleans their pools and which can acquire new proxies faster than their pools get burned.
