An IP address is a number given to every computer connected to the internet. Whenever a user makes a web request from a computer, the IP address becomes visible to the web server. And the data from the website is sent back to the user through the IP address.
Every action on the internet can be matched to the device used through an IP address.
As a business, exposing your IP address as you browse does not always have the best results. It could limit your market research efforts and hinder efficient web crawling. But with SOCKS5 proxies, you can browse anonymously and privately while carrying out other web-related functions.
So, what is SOCKS5?
Before getting to that, let’s understand proxy servers first.
Proxy servers are intermediaries that internet users use to hide their IP address and provide an alternative address.
A web request from a computer with a proxy server will move from the device to the proxy, and then from the proxy to the web server using the proxy IP address. The response goes through the same route. This means that there will be no direct interaction between the device and the web server.
Proxy servers come in different types.
