Hello,

Im scraping whois data with scrapebox for the first time and It says it needs socks proxys to scrape whois.

Well I managed to get few ANONYMOUS socks proxys after 12 hours of search and search and search and search!

But do i need "Google passed" socks proxys (very very rare with my experience) in order to get good results at whois scrapping?

Im really new to this whois thing and please help me if you can.

thanks

if your using the Google search engine then yes
if not usually anon proxies will work
why not just try it, try a few google passed
then try a few anon

you can try private proxies for it as well HTTP/HTTPS protocols will work as well i think

For whois scraping i don't think it uses Google, so you probably don't need google passed proxies, but just regular proxies..

The WHOIS scraper needs SOCKS proxies.
It's the only part of SB that does as far as I know.
Most proxies are not SOCKS
