# Proxies for web scraping: which network, at what price

The right proxy for scraping depends on what the target checks. Sites that score the type of the IP need residential proxies, home IPs from $0.80 per GB in 228 countries and territories; sites that do not are cheapest on datacenter proxies from $0.50 per GB; logins and long sessions want an ISP static IP from $2.50 per IP. All three rotate per request or hold a session, run unlimited concurrent sessions and are paid per GB or per IP with no subscription.

## What the site checks decides the network.

Proxy network by scraping target, from the live prices on 11 November 2026

| Target | Network | From | Why |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Sites that score the IP type: marketplaces, travel, social, ticketing | Residential | $0.80/GB | Home IPs in 228 countries and territories, country, state, city and ASN targeting |
| Sites that do not: your own properties, APIs, feeds, catalogs, most B2B | Datacenter | $0.50/GB | 1 Gbps+ connections, 200+ countries, the lowest price per GB |
| Logged-in sessions, carts, anything tied to one address for days | ISP (static residential) | $2.50/IP | One provider-registered IP, yours for the term, unlimited bandwidth |
| Mobile apps and platforms that trust carrier traffic most | Mobile 4G/5G | $2.30/GB | Carrier IPs with carrier, state and city targeting |
| Search engines | SERP API | $0.0009/search | Parsed results as JSON, pay per successful search, no proxy to manage |

When in doubt, start with residential on a small bundle and watch the success rate on your real targets; move the targets that never block to datacenter, where the same traffic costs less.

Rotation and sessions

## A new IP per request, or the same IP for a session.

For collection, rotate: a fresh IP on every request spreads the load over the pool and is the default on residential, mobile and datacenter. For a flow that must look like one visitor, a login, a cart, a paginated listing, hold a sticky session: the same residential IP for up to 1,440 minutes, set in the proxy username. For weeks on the same address, use an ISP static IP.

Concurrent sessions are unlimited on every residential and datacenter plan, so throughput scales with the connections your scraper opens, not with the plan size. HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5 with one login; on Residential Basic, SOCKS5 also carries UDP.

Targeting

## Scrape the page a local user sees.

Prices, availability, search results and ads change by country and often by city. Residential proxies target country, state, city and the ISP via ASN; mobile proxies add the carrier; datacenter proxies target city, state and ISP-level across 200+ countries. The location goes in the proxy username, so one scraper can run many markets in parallel with one plan.

What it costs

## Per GB on the metered networks; nothing monthly.

Per-GB bundles, from the live price lists on 11 November 2026

| Network | Smallest bundle | Largest bundle | From |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Residential Basic | 5 GB for $5, 30 days | 1 TB for $800, 360 days | $0.80/GB |
| Datacenter | 10 GB for $8, 30 days | 1 TB for $500, 360 days | $0.50/GB |
| Mobile 4G/5G | 1 GB for $5, 90 days | 500 GB for $1,150, 90 days | $2.30/GB |

A GB goes further on text than on media: block images and fonts in your scraper and the same bundle buys many more pages. Before paying, the free trial, 100 MB of Residential Basic for 5 days with no card, shows how many requests a megabyte buys on your targets. The per-GB view of every bundle is on [residential proxy pricing per GB](https://quanticdata.io/residential-proxies/volume-pricing/).

## The APIs that return the data instead of the page.

For search engines, the [SERP API](https://quanticdata.io/serp-api/) returns parsed results from $0.0009 per search, pay per success. For pages, the [web scraping API](https://quanticdata.io/web-scraping-api/) returns clean Markdown with the access layer handled. Both run on the same account balance as the proxies and come with $2 of free usage every month.

## Questions scrapers ask

### Which proxies are best for web scraping?

It depends on the target. Sites that score the IP type need residential proxies (from $0.80 per GB); sites that do not are cheapest on datacenter proxies (from $0.50 per GB); logged-in sessions want an ISP static IP (from $2.50 per IP).

### Rotating or sticky for scraping?

Rotating for collection: a new IP per request. Sticky for flows that must look like one visitor: the same residential IP for up to 1,440 minutes, set in the username.

### How many concurrent connections can I open?

Concurrent sessions are unlimited on every residential and datacenter plan; throughput follows the connections your scraper opens.

### Can I target a city?

Yes. Residential: country, state, city and ASN. Mobile: carrier, state and city. Datacenter: city, state and ISP-level, across 200+ countries.

### Is there a free trial for scraping proxies?

Yes: 100 MB of Residential Basic for 5 days, with SMS verification and no card. The data APIs add $2 of free usage every month.

### Do I need a subscription?

No. Every plan is paid once and used over its term; there is no monthly cap and no identity check.

### When is the SERP API cheaper than proxies?

For search engines: a parsed result page costs $0.0009 per successful search, with no proxy, parser or retries to run on your side.

## Residential for the sites that check, datacenter for the rest.

From $0.80 per GB on residential and $0.50 per GB on datacenter, rotating or sticky, unlimited concurrent sessions, paid once. No subscription, no KYC.
