"Why Does Proxy Price Vary So Much Between Providers?"
Hey everyone! Been shopping around for proxies lately and man, the proxy price differences are wild. Some are dirt cheap, others cost an arm and a leg.
What gives? From what I’ve seen, stuff like location (US/EU proxies = $$$), speed, and whether they’re shared or dedicated plays a huge role. Also, sneaky providers might throttle bandwidth or sell overused IPs to keep proxy price low.
Anyone else notice this? How do you even know if you’re getting a fair deal? Sometimes I wonder if the mid-tier options are the sweet spot—not too sketchy, not too pricey.
Would love to hear your thoughts or if you’ve got tips to avoid getting ripped off!
(Also, sorry for any typos—typing this on my phone lol.)
