Introduction
What Proxio is, how a proxy works, who these docs are for, and the three things you need before your first request.
Proxio is a proxy network for web scraping, SEO rank tracking, and large-scale data collection. Its flagship product is pay-per-GB rotating residential proxies: a pool of real residential IPs you reach through a single gateway, paying only for the traffic you use. Flat-rate, unlimited-bandwidth ISP and datacenter proxies round out the lineup for teams that would rather not meter data at all.
The products
- Residential, pay per GB (flagship). Rotating residential IPs served
through one gateway,
geo.proxio.cc:16666. You target a country, state, or city and choose how IPs rotate, all from your proxy username. Most of these docs cover this product. - ISP & Datacenter: flat-rate, unlimited bandwidth. Delivered as dedicated IPs per order. Each proxy is its own host, port, username, and password, with no shared gateway and no username targeting. See ISP & Datacenter proxies for how they're set up.
Why unlimited bandwidth matters
Flat-rate, unlimited-bandwidth ISP and datacenter proxies are Proxio's differentiator: run them at full tilt without watching a per-GB meter. When you need real residential IPs and precise geo-targeting, reach for the pay-per-GB residential pool instead.
How a proxy works
A proxy sits between your client and the site you're requesting, forwarding your traffic so the destination sees the proxy's IP instead of your own. With Proxio's residential proxies, that exit IP belongs to a real device in the location you target, so your requests look like ordinary user traffic. You send requests exactly as you always would, just pointing your HTTP client at Proxio's gateway with your username and password.
Who this is for
These docs are written for the people who run proxies in production:
- Data and scraping engineers collecting web data at scale.
- SEO and SERP teams tracking rankings from specific locations.
- E-commerce and price-monitoring teams checking listings across markets.
- Social media and account-management teams that need stable, geo-consistent sessions.
- Anyone verifying ads, prices, or content as they appear in another country.
What you need
Three things get you from zero to your first request:
- A Proxio account. Register at dashboard.proxio.net/register.
- A funded wallet. Top up your balance, then pay for packages from it. See Wallet & Top-Up.
- An active service. For this guide, that's a Residential package. Once it's active, its username, password, and gateway live on the service's Setup tab.
