【Webshare】Proxy Configuration

1. Webshare Proxy Purchase Configuration Process

1.1. Option A) - create a Webshare account & access your free proxies

Before we can move on to configuring DuoPlus, we first need to obtain some proxies. Webshare offers a fantastic free plan of 10 datacenter proxies & 1GB/month of bandwidth for all new accounts. This basic plan lets users get a taste of the services before committing to paid plans.

Simply make a new account , follow the steps and finally click “Let’s Get Started” which will take you to your free proxy list.

Option B) - purchase a paid plan for better performance & reliability

For users who know the specific proxies their workloads require, and/or want better performance and reliability across multiple targets, considering a paid plan is the recommended option. Those who will be working with the free plan - you can skip to Step 2.

For the rest, follow the steps below to acquire your first premium Webshare proxy plan.

1.2. Access the Dashboard & upgrade your plan

After you create your account (Step 1.1), you will be presented with your account dashboard. The Proxy List is your initial screen with your currently owned proxies.

In the Browse Plans screen, you will be prompted with several options to configure your proxy setup. You’ll need to choose the following options:

●Your desired plan type (Proxy Server, Static Residential, or Residential)

●Proxy privacy level (Shared, Private, or Dedicated)

●Amount of IPs & bandwidth

Important note: DuoPlus only supports the SOCKS5 protocol. Ensure the proxy plan you’re purchasing supports this protocol.
