Buying proxies

To start using proxies, you first need to purchase them. Unfortunately, Floppydata does not offer a free trial. However, proxy prices are very low, and you can buy proxies starting from just 1 IP or 2 GB of traffic. This makes it possible to test their proxies with minimal cost.

Before purchasing proxies, you can test how they work with your target website. At the top of the page, there is a tool that allows you to test website access. This is a great way to check whether the proxies will work with a specific website before buying them.

Proxy purchases are divided into two categories: Static proxies and Rotating proxies. The purchase process is intuitive. You need to select the proxy type, quantity, and, in the case of static proxies, choose a country.

After selecting all required parameters and adding the proxies to the cart, you can proceed to payment.

Payment methods include Bank card, PayPal, and Cryptocurrency. If you want to pay using PayPal, select the bank card payment option. After that, the PayPal payment option will appear.

Important note: When paying with cryptocurrency, the monthly subscription format is not available. You will need to renew your subscription manually each month. In addition, if you need rotating proxies and want to pay based on usage instead of monthly billing, you must select "One-time payment." In this case, the price increases by 50%.

Using proxies

If you purchased static proxies, they will appear in your dashboard within 10 minutes after payment. If you purchased rotating proxies, you will need to create a proxy pool. This process is simple.

• Select the proxy type

• Create a name for the proxy pool

• Select a country and, optionally, a city

• Set how often the IP address should change

• Select the protocol. We explained the differences between protocols here

• Set the number of threads you need

That’s it. Congratulations, you have created a proxy pool that is ready to use. Its information will now be displayed on the "Dashboard" page.

Additional tools

We have covered how to buy and create proxies. However, Floppydata also offers additional tools:

• Check website. Allows you to check whether a target website is accessible using proxies.

• IP Change Detector. Helps monitor proxy stability and how often the IP address changes.

• Scrape any webpage. Allows you to make up to 5 requests and retrieve data from any website.

• Check system status. A page with information about Floppydata system stability.

• API Documentation. Documentation on how to use the Floppydata API.

• Free Proxy Server List. A page with a list of free datacenter proxies. Available here.

• Free Proxy Checker. A tool to check whether your proxies are working. Available here.

Conclusion

Considering the price, proxy quality, and the convenience of the user dashboard, we can confidently say that Floppydata is one of the best proxy providers available. The only missing feature is support for more interface languages in the dashboard.
