1How to choose the right proxy type

NanoIP offers dynamic residential proxies, dynamic mobile proxies, and static ISP proxies. The main decisions are whether you need a fixed IP, what you use it for, and how you want to be billed.

1.1Proxy type comparison

Proxy type	IP behavior	Billing	Best for
Dynamic residential	Rotating IPs	Traffic based	Data collection, price monitoring, search result checks, regional content access
Dynamic mobile	Mobile carrier network	Traffic based	Mobile ad verification, mobile content testing
Static ISP	Fixed IP during validity period	By IP and duration	Fingerprint browsers, account management, long-term login, stable environments

1.2Choose dynamic residential proxies when

Use dynamic residential proxies when you need many different IPs and do not need the same IP for a long time.

Public web data collection.
Price and inventory monitoring.
Search result and regional content checks.
Ad display verification.
Independent bulk requests.

1.3Choose dynamic mobile proxies when

Use dynamic mobile proxies when the target workflow needs a mobile carrier network environment.

Mobile ad verification.
App store content checks.
Mobile search result testing.
Mobile localized content review.

1.4Choose static ISP proxies when

Use static ISP proxies when a stable network identity matters.

Fingerprint browsers.
Independent multi-account environments.
Long login sessions.
Social media or e-commerce account operation.
Long-running browser automation.

1.5Quick recommendation

Need rotating IPs: choose dynamic residential proxies.
Need a mobile carrier network: choose dynamic mobile proxies.
Need a long-term fixed IP: choose static ISP proxies.
Need fingerprint browser profiles: prefer static ISP proxies.

2What is the difference between rotating and sticky sessions?

When using NanoIP dynamic residential or dynamic mobile proxies, you can choose rotating or sticky sessions. The key difference is whether the exit IP should stay the same for a period of time.

2.1Comparison

Item	Rotating session	Sticky session
How IP changes	Changes dynamically by route rules	Keeps one IP for the selected session period
Best for	Independent bulk requests	Login, browsing, submission, and other continuous flows
Main advantage	Higher IP diversity	More stable session flow
Common scenarios	Data collection, price monitoring, search checks	Account login, forms, checkout flows
Long-term fixed IP	Not suitable	Only short-term stability

2.2Rotating sessions

A rotating session means the proxy exit IP can change according to route rules. Different requests may use different IPs, so it fits independent tasks that do not need login state.

Public web data collection.
Price and inventory monitoring.
Search result checks.
Ad display verification.
Large independent request batches.

2.3Sticky sessions

A sticky session keeps multiple requests on one exit IP for a limited period. It is not the same as a long-term fixed IP.

Visiting multiple pages after login.
Submitting multi-step forms.
Completing login, browsing, or checkout flows.
Workflows where the target requires one IP during the operation.

2.4How to choose

Independent requests: choose rotating sessions.
One continuous workflow: choose sticky sessions.
Need many different IPs: choose rotating sessions.
Need short-term logged-in stability: choose sticky sessions.
Need the same IP for days or longer: use static ISP proxies.
