➡️ Overview

Rayobyte’s Semi-Dedicated Proxies and Semi-ISP Proxies are shared static proxies used by up to 3 customers at the same time. Because they are shared (rather than fully private), they offer a more budget-friendly alternative to Dedicated Datacenter and Static ISP proxies while still delivering dependable performance for many workflows.

Both Semi-Dedicated (Datacenter) and Semi-ISP proxies are part of our Static Proxy lineup. They are ideal for users who need multiple stable IPs but do not require exclusive ownership of each address.


➡️ Benefits of Semi-Dedicated & Semi-ISP Proxies

  1. Lower Cost Compared to Fully Dedicated or ISP IPs
    • ✔ Sharing each proxy with up to 2 other users helps significantly reduce costs.
    • ✔ A great option for users needing many IPs without the higher cost of exclusivity.
  2. Solid Performance for Light to Moderate Workloads
    • ✔ Well suited for short tasks, intermittent usage, and general browsing.
    • ✔ Performs reliably for SEO tools, testing environments, and basic scraping.
  3. Supports HTTP and SOCKS Protocols
    • ✔ Compatible with browsers, SEO applications, and software supporting proxy input.
    • ✔ SOCKS support provides more flexibility for certain tools or use cases.
  4. Bypass Basic Geo-Restrictions
    • ✔ Select from multiple countries to access region-locked content.
    • ✔ Useful for location testing and simple geo-based tasks.
  5. Affordable Entry Into Static Proxy Usage
    • ✔ Ideal for beginners or users testing workflows before upgrading to Dedicated or ISP proxies.

➡️ When to Use Semi-Dedicated & Semi-ISP vs Dedicated/ISP Proxies

✔ Choose Semi-Dedicated or Semi-ISP Proxies When:

  • ✔ You want a more affordable static proxy option.
  • ✔ Your tasks are low to medium sensitivity (e.g., SEO tools, browsing, basic scraping).
  • ✔ You do not require strict 1 IP per 1 account isolation.

✔ Consider Dedicated or Static ISP Proxies Instead When:

  • ✔ You are managing sensitive or long-term accounts (e.g., social media, marketplaces).
  • ✔ You need exclusive, unshared IP ownership.
  • ✔ You are working with strict platforms with advanced bot or fraud detection.

Note: Semi-dedicated and Semi-ISP proxies are not recommended for social media account creation/management or highly sensitive identity-based use cases. Dedicated Datacenter and Static ISP proxies offer significantly better reliability for those workflows.


➡️ Typical Use Cases

Semi-dedicated and Semi-ISP proxies are ideal for tasks requiring static IPs without the need for full exclusivity. Common use cases include:

  • ✔ General web browsing
  • ✔ SEO and rank-tracking tools
  • ✔ Basic web scraping on non-sensitive sites
  • ✔ Application and website testing
  • ✔ Viewing geo-restricted content

Not ideal for: long-term account management, identity-sensitive tasks, or platforms with strict anti-bot systems.
