Multi-accounting and proxies are often found in the same sentence. Probably everyone has already said that it is impossible to do multi-accounting without a proxy. And if it is possible, then not for long.
This article is for those who want to delve deeper into the topic and fully understand whether it will be possible to do multi-accounting without a proxy and what consequences await with this approach.
Multi-accounting is when a user creates several accounts on one online platform and manages them simultaneously.
For example, you create 10 accounts on a social network to launch a mass mailing. Or register several accounts at a bookmaker's office to receive welcome bonuses as a new user. These are all examples of multi-accounting.
Everyone creates multiple accounts for different reasons. For some, it is a way to increase the effectiveness of online promotion, and for others, to earn money on cryptocurrency. But all fans of multi-accounting have one thing in common - the desire to use social networks and online platforms to the maximum.
Social networks and bookmakers are not the only areas where multi-accounting is used. It is also used in other niches:
Crypto trading. The more accounts, the more chances to get bonuses and tokens in mints, whitelists and airdrops. To earn money on crypto, some even create 100 accounts or more;
SEO. SEO specialists need dozens of accounts to parse data, collect a semantic core using automation programs and monitor competitors;
Traffic arbitrage and Internet marketing. Arbitrageurs and marketers use multi-accounting to create several accounts on advertising platforms and simultaneously launch advertising in different regions. In addition, when you have several accounts in reserve, you can protect yourself from losing a single advertising account, which can stop your work.
Multi-accounting is not only for work, as it may seem. It is also used by ordinary users. For example, to re-register on a social network where the user's old account was blocked.
In short, negatively. Multi-accounting is beneficial for users: we have described in detail how many useful things can be done.
However, for websites and social networks, multi-accounting is a plague in the online sphere, the fight against which does not stop for a second. Online platforms prohibit users from registering more than one account and punish violators.
Anti-fraud systems help websites fight multi-accounting, which identify violators by IP address, digital fingerprint and other technical data. Without additional tools, it will not be possible to hide from surveillance and outwit the system. You will not be able to become invisible on the Internet, because at every step you leave a trace - a fingerprint and an IP address.
An IP address is a numeric code that is assigned to each computer, smartphone or tablet connected to the Internet. It can be compared to a postal address. Just as a postal address is needed to send a letter to the right recipient, an IP address is needed to route data on the Internet.
But fortunately, it is possible to get rid of website tracking and outsmart website anti-fraud systems. Two tools help with this: an anti-detect browser and a proxy. Let us recall: an anti-detect browser will replace a digital fingerprint, and a proxy will replace an IP address.
A proxy is an intermediary that connects a user and a website. Proxies mask user data by replacing the IP address. How it works:
The user connects to the proxy;
Sends an Internet request, the proxy server intercepts it;
The proxy sends a request to the final website using its IP address. The user's IP address is hidden;
The proxy returns the received data to the user.
The user browses sites anonymously - his IP address is not "seen" anywhere. If the proxy is high-quality, the sites do not understand that the user is "fake", that is, he accesses the Internet through a proxy. He looks like a regular user, with a standard IP address.
The main task of a proxy is anonymization. Proxies are used to surf the web anonymously, engage in multi-accounting, run automation programs, and change your geolocation on the Internet. Let's look at multi-accounting in more detail.
If the accounts have different IP addresses and geolocations, the sites will have no reason to suspect that multi-accounting is involved. Therefore, in order to avoid getting banned and create the appearance of different users, you need to replace the IP address.
Proxies cope with this task. They hide the IP address and create the appearance of a new user from another city or country. For example, if you connect a Moscow proxy, but live in Chelyabinsk, the sites will perceive you as a user from Moscow.
Follow the rule: a new proxy server is needed for each account. This way, you can create accounts with different IP addresses and avoid a ban for multi-accounting.
Let's imagine that you decided to create a dozen accounts on one social network and manage them without a proxy. Even if you manage to register, then when you start doing something in the accounts, sanctions will very soon catch up with you.
Punishments vary. In the best case, you may be asked for additional data to verify that you are you. If it is a bookmaker, they may temporarily freeze your account or reduce the odds percentage.
In the worst case, all accounts will be blocked without the right to restore and withdraw funds, if provided. Such strict measures are used by bookmakers, crypto exchanges and popular social networks.
In any case, the consequences will be unpleasant. The question is how much. Therefore, if you want to calmly manage several accounts, do not hope for a miracle - use not only an anti-detect browser, but also a proxy.
The most reliable are residential and mobile proxies. These are 2 types of proxies with maximum anonymity and protection from detection. They are almost never banned, so for multi-accounting - the best option.
Which GEO to choose, decide for yourself which country you need. For example, if you are going to work with American platforms, take a US proxy.
The main thing is to avoid free proxies from the public domain. These are those that are published on publicly accessible sites. Finding anonymous and secure ones will be very difficult, almost impossible. Many who used public proxies later complained about the leakage of personal data. Rent a proxy from specialized services, such as Proxys.io.
Proxys.io is a proxy rental service that has been operating for almost 10 years. All types of proxies and more than 80 geolocations are available. The service offers:
Proxies with increased anonymity and security;
High-speed proxies from 7 Mbps to 30 Mbps - depends on the type;
Convenient payment methods - accept bank cards and cryptocurrency;
24/7 technical support - responsive operators answer questions quickly and in detail;
Affordable prices from $ 0.13 per month of rent.
If you decide to do multi-accounting without a proxy, this is a bad idea. Doubtful savings are not worth blocking all accounts, freezing accounts and the inability to work and earn money.
After you have rented a proxy, you need to add it to your browser. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do this:
Open MoreLogin browser.
Create a new profile. To do this, click the button in the upper left corner "+ New profile".
After clicking on the button to create a new profile, click on "Advanced create" and go to the proxy settings (Proxy setting).
Select "Custom" and specify the proxy type: HTTPS or SOCKS5.
For example, you chose SOCKS5. Now you need to fill in the proxy server data: specify the IP address, login and password.
Click OK to save the changes and add the proxy to the profile.
