Private proxy servers provide anonymous IP addresses to protect online privacy. They rotate IP addresses to prevent cookies from recording browsing history. Consider operating system compatibility, pricing, number of IP addresses, and manual rotation when choosing a server.
Private proxy servers are servers that provide you with an anonymous Internet Protocol (IP) address that protects your privacy on the Internet. While browsing the Internet, some websites will use cookies to collect data about your browsing history. A private proxy server ensures that your browsing history remains private by rotating the currently used IP. Using different IP addresses means that cookies cannot accurately record your browsing history. Things to consider when choosing the best proxy server are the operating system, price, number of IP addresses provided by the server, and whether you can manually rotate IP addresses.
The operating system will be the first thing to consider. Most proxy servers are universal, so they can be used on Mac®, Windows®, Linux® and UNIX® operating systems. Some, however, can only be used on a specific operating system. If you decide to use a proxy server that only works with one operating system, make sure you are running that system on your computer.
Pricing and pricing structure are the next considerations when choosing a private proxy server. Some services charge per IP address, some charge per month, and some charge a one-time fee. The price usually coordinates with the number of features, such as special security features or more supported websites, and the number of IP addresses that come with the proxy server.
The number of IP addresses is an important consideration, because the more IP addresses the private proxy server uses, the more online security the server offers. This is because IP addresses rotate, so Internet cookies cannot collect precise data about your private browsing. The more IP addresses, the better the rotation and the better the private proxy server protects your privacy.
Being able to rotate IP addresses manually is another consideration, because this further protects your anonymity. Some private proxy servers automatically rotate the IP after a certain period of time. Others rotate the IP automatically and also allow you to click a button to rotate the IP manually at any time. This makes it even more difficult for cookies to record accurate reports about your Internet browsing.
The right private proxy server for you will be able to work with your operating system and will have an affordable pricing structure. It will have a good number of IP addresses and may come with the feature to manually rotate the IP address. By using a private proxy server, you will protect your online anonymity, which is useful for both companies and ordinary Internet users.
