Are ColdProxy United Kingdom proxies residential or datacenter?

ColdProxy gives you both. The United Kingdom residential pool covers nationwide IP supply for sites that block datacenter ranges (social media, classifieds, banking, streaming). On top of that, our Datacenter IPv6 network is deployed in London, so high-throughput scraping and SERP collection get fast, unmetered city-level connections inside United Kingdom.

How many proxy IPs does ColdProxy have in United Kingdom?

ColdProxy's United Kingdom pool currently sits at 3,924,785 IPs across multiple ISPs in Northern Europe. Pool size matters because larger pools rotate more freely, lowering ban risk on rate-limited targets. You can confirm the live pool size at request time with our IP-check tool, and the count refreshes daily as new ISP supply comes online.

Can I target a specific city in United Kingdom?

Yes — city-level targeting is supported for United Kingdom on every residential plan. The exact city footprint varies with local ISP supply, so if you need a specific city please open a sales ticket with the city name and we will confirm current pool depth before you commit.

What protocols do British proxies support?

Every United Kingdom proxy on ColdProxy works over HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5. You can also pin sticky sessions for 1 to 30 minutes when you need the same United Kingdom IP across a multi-step flow (login, checkout, pagination). HTTPS and SOCKS5 are recommended for production scraping since they encrypt the request payload between your client and our gateway.

What sites can I scrape with United Kingdom proxies?

United Kingdom proxies are commonly used to scrape ASOS, Argos, and BBC iPlayer, plus the global Google SERP for United Kingdom, social-media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok), travel aggregators, and any site that geo-blocks foreign visitors. Because the IPs are real residential, you avoid the datacenter-range bans that hit cheaper proxy networks first.

United Kingdom Proxies — Real Residential IPs from Local ISPs

British residential proxy IPs route your traffic through real, ISP-assigned addresses inside United Kingdom. United Kingdom is home to 69.3M people and sits in Northern Europe, which gives our 3,924,785 IP pool a footprint deep enough for high-volume web scraping, ad verification, SERP rank tracking, e-commerce price monitoring, and social-media multi-accounting. City-level targeting is supported wherever our ISP supply allows. Customers commonly run these IPs against ASOS, Argos, and BBC iPlayer, where datacenter ranges are normally blocked on first request. Native English-speaking IPs help when SERPs, ad units, or product catalogues localise by language as well as region.

Residential vs Datacenter coverage by country

Coverage depth is not the same for every protocol. Pick the right proxy type before you pick the country.

Comparison of residential and datacenter proxy coverage by country, including pool size, supported markets, and best-fit use cases.
Factor	Residential by country	Datacenter IPv6 by country
Country count	195+ countries	~25 countries across 6 continents (47 metros)
Pool size per country	1k IPs (micro-states) up to 12.9M (USA)	Effectively unlimited subnet pool per metro
City / state targeting	City + state on most countries	City-level on every Datacenter IPv6 metro
Detection rate on hard sites	Lowest — looks like a real local user	Higher — datacenter ASN can be flagged
Best for	Social media, sneakers, classifieds, streaming, ad verification	Bulk SERP scraping, price monitoring at scale, public APIs
Cost per GB	From $1.99/GB on the GB-Based plan	Bandwidth-unlimited — pay per IP / month
