Google ranks differently by city, by device and by ISP. A rank tracker that does not target geography returns numbers no real user sees. Tier-1 residential routes with city and ASN US targeting reproduce a specific metro's SERP — local-pack, knowledge panel, ads and organic — so rank tracking matches what searchers actually experience. Unlimited bandwidth keeps the bill flat on catalogue-scale keyword sweeps.
Google's anti-bot stack is the most sophisticated on the open web. Three patterns kill naive SERP scrapers within minutes.
Google flags known datacenter ASNs the moment a few automated queries arrive in sequence. Residential IPs from real consumer ISPs do not trip the same signal because the traffic pattern matches normal browser use.
"plumber near me" returns a different local-pack in Dallas vs Boston vs Phoenix. Without city-level targeting, an SEO tracker conflates rankings across geographies and produces numbers that do not match any single market.
Google's ads auction and SERP-feature display vary by ASN class. ASN-level routing on Platinum lets a tracker pin a session to a residential ISP and reproduce ad placements consistently.
A daily 100k-keyword sweep with full SERP payloads runs into hundreds of GBs a month. Unlimited residential bandwidth on Budget Unlimited caps the bill flat regardless of keyword volume.
Multi-page SERP capture breaks if the IP rotates between pages — Google reorders results. Sticky sessions up to 60 hours hold the same IP through a paginated keyword.
Bing, DuckDuckGo, Yandex (RU) and Baidu (CN) work through the same proxy URL. Yandex and Baidu in particular need country targeting to return their native SERP rather than a non-local degradation.
Default for accurate rank tracking and local-pack monitoring. Tier-1 ISP residential with city, state and ASN US targeting. The only plan that reproduces metro-specific SERPs reliably.
Default for catalogue-scale keyword sweeps. Unlimited bandwidth, port-based pricing, 200+ countries. Right fit when nightly 100k+ keyword sweeps would dominate per-GB pricing.
Higher-throughput unlimited pool for rank trackers and SEO platforms running 1 Gbps+ aggregate. US-region rotating routes.
For high-RPS search scrapers where unit cost matters more than residential fingerprint and the SERP source is less anti-bot-strict (Bing, DDG).
