Rotating vs sticky sessions for residential proxies
Compare rotating residential proxy sessions and sticky sessions, including when to use each mode for scraping, SEO monitoring, ad verification, and price checks.
What rotating sessions do
Rotating sessions change the exit IP over time or per request. This works well when requests are independent and a workflow needs to distribute traffic across many residential-style routes.
What sticky sessions do
Sticky sessions keep the same exit identity for a short window. This is useful when a workflow needs continuity, such as checking multiple pages in the same localized context or reviewing a multi-step user path.
How to choose
Choose rotating sessions for broad collection, monitoring, and independent checks. Choose sticky sessions when the target workflow expects a stable identity across several steps. Some teams need both modes for different jobs.
What affects the quote
Session length, traffic volume, target countries, and concurrency can all affect planning. Share those details before buying so LivoProxy can recommend a setup that matches the workflow.
