Hey everyone!
So, I’ve been running a web scraping proxy pool for a while now, and honestly, keeping it reliable is a *constant* battle. Like, one day it’s smooth sailing, and the next, half the proxies are dead or blocked. 😩
What’s your go-to strategy for managing a web scraping proxy pool? I’ve been rotating IPs regularly and using a mix of datacenter and residential proxies to avoid bans. But I feel like I’m missing something.
Also, how do you guys handle rate limiting? I’ve tried throttling requests, but sometimes it feels like I’m either too slow or too aggressive.
Oh, and do you clean up your web scraping proxy pool often? I’ve noticed that removing dead or flagged IPs ASAP helps, but it’s such a chore.
Would love to hear your tips and tricks! Cheers! 🍻
