Checking if datacenter IPs are blocked
I want to use datacenter proxies for scraping, but someone told me they get blocked almost immediately. How do I know if an IP is already blacklisted on the sites I want to target?

Datacenter IPs are indeed easier for websites to detect and block compared to residential ones. If you are experiencing frequent connection drops or access denials, the IP might already be flagged. To verify the status of your connection, you can use an ip checker blacklist https://proxy-checker.net/en/blacklist/ to find out if the server IP is restricted by the target platform.
