How do I Authorize My Proxies?
It is important to understand that authorization for the proxies is required to prevent non-authorized users from being able to use the proxies. It keeps the proxies secure to you. That is why the proxies will not work if you do not authorize correctly.
There are a few different types of authorization options we provide depending on your use case. Please find the authorization type you need below for instructions.
IP Authorization:
- IP Authorization uses the port 3128 with the proxies.
1. Login to Proxy Dashboard
2. To find your PC/Device's IP, open a web browser
3. Go to Proxy Dashboard, and select ‘Via IP', ‘HTTP', then enter your IP into the blank box in the screenshot on ‘2.'. Then click ‘Add IP'.
4. The proxies will not work for 30 minutes until your IP is fully authorized in the system. The IP will be added to the system after 30 minutes, and then you will be able to use the proxies.
5. Complete! You may then use the proxies as needed.

How do I Use and Test My Proxies in a Browser?
Before testing proxies in a browser, you'll want to make sure they are authorized in your dashboard. You may either use IP authorization method or username/password authorization method for this purpose.
Testing with a Chrome Browser
1. Open Chrome, and click on the ellipsis (3 dots) in the upper right corner of your browser and choose ‘Settings'
2. Scroll to bottom of Settings page, and select ‘Advanced'

How can I Get a Diverse Subnet for My Proxies?
Our system is automatically set to provide you with a diverse subnet for your proxy’s IP. If you still find the proxy IPs to be lacking in diversity, you may proceed to replace the proxy’s IP via your proxy DASHBOARD accordingly. Kindly login to your proxy dashboard and browse to the “Proxy Replacements” tab and replace the IP that you find unsuitable. You can also follow this video guide HERE on how to replace your proxies.
DISCLAIMER: Each replacement will use a single proxy replacement credit. If you purchased 10 proxies, you are entitled to 10 proxy replacements per billing cycle. The replacement credit will be replenished on the next billing cycle. Kindly use the replacements cautiously, as we are unable to replenish the credit manually.
How do I Test Proxies?
To test the proxies, you may simply follow this video guide:

Why Are My Proxies Not Working on Some Sites?
Does your proxy work on some sites, but does not work on others?
Did your proxy work in the past, but now it does not work?
If you answered ‘Yes' to either of the above questions, then it is likely that your proxies are banned (or ‘blocked') on the website you are using them on. In this part, we will talk about why this happens, as well as what you can do about it.
If you answered ‘No' to both of the above questions, then please visit our article about why your proxies might not be providing connectivity to any sites. You can read about it 这里.
Why did I Get Banned?
There are a number of reasons as to why a proxy can get banned, some of which are predictable and obvious, while other reasons are only theoretical guesses. Here are a few reasons:
1. You are using your proxies too fast
One of the main reasons for getting banned on a website is that you have your software configured to run too fast at a particular website. Websites will not tolerate significant, parallel, connections as it may cause harm to their services. Imagine a scenario where a website allowed a single IP address to connect to it at [1 million times] per second – wow! It's clear that they would place a ban, or block, on this IP address so that it cannot connect to their website anymore.
What is the appropriate speed that you can connect to the site you are using the proxies on? Unfortunately, that's a hard question to answer, but what we recommend is that people run their own experiments to find that rate:
- Set your software to run at a slow speed that will not cause a ban (ex: 1 request per hour)
- If you do not receive a ban at that rate, then increase it higher (ex: 2 requests per hour)
- Repeat this until you receive a ban, and then set your rate at the previous rate before
2. You are running at a slow rate and some of your proxies work, but others do not
The next question we frequently receive is customers asking why some of their proxies work, and why some of their proxies are banned. This is an unfortunate side effect of how IPv4 address schema works and why it impacts proxies.
There are two terms used frequently in the proxy business:
- Subnets (A, B, C subnets – read here for more info)
- ISPs (or ASNs). Example: Verizon is an ISP; Sprious is an ISP; etc
Why do subnets and ISPs (Internet Service Providers) matter in the terms of proxies? It's because it makes it easier for the website you are using the proxy on to see that you are sharing the same ISP or subnet as other proxy customers of ours that are also using the proxies for the same use case.
Given that the proxy industry is driven largely by certain niches (Scraping, social media marketing, and others), it's very common that many customers are using proxies for the same use case as yours. Therefore, when this happens, your proxy speeds can negatively impact each other because you share the same subnet or ISP as another customer using the same use case.
What can you do about this? Please read on!
What Can I do About My Proxies Being Banned?
In this section we will cover various options you have to be more successful with your proxies with Blazing SEO:
1. From day one, Blazing SEO made it a top priority that our customers could have the freedom to automatically replace their proxies if any of them were not working for any reason.
2. If you run out of replacements, please contact us and our support team will assist you with restoring the replacements.
3. Slow your proxy speed down: As discussed in the previous section, sometimes it just requires you to slow down your rates a little in order to achieve maximum throughput.
4. Contact us – seriously!
- If pricing is a problem at the rates you are running your proxies now, please contact us and we can discuss custom pricing that will make you the most profitable.
- There are a number of strategies we can offer you (at no additional cost) that will give your account better proxies. This includes only giving you IPs from certain ISPs/ASNs and only IPs from certain subnets that appear to work better for your use case.
- The reason that certain IPs on certain ISPs or subnets work better than others is that some ISPs that we partner with are on “blacklists” for certain use cases. By configuring your account to receive IPs from ISPs/subnets that work for you, you will inherently avoid getting IPs from the “blacklisted” ISPs/subnets
Did you know: Blazing SEO has IPs spread across:
1. 7 different ISPs/ASNs
2. Thousands of unique C-class subnets. Just look at one of our partner's IP diversity here.
1. How can I switch between proxies in my browser?
We recommend using the FoxyProxy Add-on for 铬 或 火狐浏览器 to easily switch between proxies in your browser.
2. What happens if I use a dynamic changing personal IP?
If you have an IP address that is dynamic (changing), then you will be unable to authorize your proxies via IP authorization in the proxy dashboard. You will need to instead use Username/Password authorization.
However, it is not currently possible to use Username/Password with our Rotating Proxies, only IP authorization. So if you have a dynamic IP, then rotating proxies will not work for you.
3. How do I know if I set up my proxies correctly?
Many users report that their proxies are “not working”, but in actuality, it is a server or user error that is the cause of it. If you see the proxy IP at whatismyipaddress.com then you know you have set it up correctly.
4. When should I replace a proxy in my account?
In rare occasions, the proxy may go offline due to unforeseen circumstances. If you urgently need to use all the available proxies in your account, you may replace the proxy that isn’t working through your proxy DASHBOARD and you can also follow this video guide for reference below. Also, if you find a particular IP address to be unsuitable to your usage, you may also replace the respective IP via your proxy dashboard.
