Ad Verification: the complete guide
Proxies are the core infrastructure behind any proxy workflow. Without them, a single IP address accumulates request history across all activity — triggering rate limits, CAPTCHAs, and outright bans that break pipelines and cost time.
Residential proxies route requests through IP addresses assigned to real home internet connections by ISPs. To any target server, the traffic looks like a regular user browsing from a real location — not a data center or bot.
RaxyProxy provides access to over 150 million residential IPs across 210+ countries. Requests rotate automatically on every connection, or stick to a single IP for session-dependent workflows. Country, state, city, and carrier-level geo-targeting is included at no extra cost.
Choosing the right proxy type
Residential Proxies are the recommended choice for this use case. Ad verification requires viewing content from the exact IP location of the target audience. A datacenter IP or a foreign residential IP will not trigger geo-targeted ad serving — you will see a blank or a fallback ad, not the real campaign. Residential proxies route your verification through real ISP-assigned IPs in each target market, giving you the same ad experience as the local audience.
All traffic is billed per GB with no subscription commitment. Start with a small trial to verify integration, then scale to the volume your workflow requires.
Proxy type comparison
| Type | Best for | Detection resistance |
|---|---|---|
| Residential Proxies | Scraping, monitoring, data pipelines | Highest |
| Mobile Proxies | Social media, mobile-native platforms | Highest (carrier ASN) |
| Datacenter Proxies | Speed-critical, low-detection targets | Low |
| Premium Residential Proxies | High-value monitoring, brand protection | Highest + uptime SLA |
