Dedicated Proxy
A dedicated proxy is an IP address assigned to one customer and nobody else. Below it sit two other tiers. A semi-dedicated proxy splits the same address across a small fixed number of tenants, commonly three to five. A shared or rotating proxy draws from a pool that every customer on the plan can also draw from. The only thing separating the tiers is who else's traffic leaves from the address you are using.
That matters because rate limits, blocklist entries and reputation scores attach to the address, not to the account behind it. On shared supply, another tenant hammering the same target you are scraping is indistinguishable from you hammering it. The visible symptom is an intermittent block you cannot reproduce and cannot correlate with anything in your own request log, which is expensive to debug and easy to misdiagnose as a fingerprinting problem. Dedicated supply does not make you harder to detect. It makes your reputation a consequence of your own behavior, which is what makes tuning possible at all.
The two tiers also invert the billing model. Dedicated is priced per IP per month and does not move with data volume. Webshare lists datacenter proxies from $0.018 per IP, static residential from $0.23 per IP and ISP proxies from $0.30 per IP monthly, against $1.40 to $3.50 per GB for its rotating residential pool depending on tier (webshare.io/pricing, read 2026-07-27). One is a fixed cost you can forecast on day one. The other scales with every byte you pull.
Do the arithmetic against your own crawl. Fifty ISP addresses at $0.30 is $15 a month regardless of traffic. Pull 500,000 pages across them and the per-request cost is $0.00003, at about 10,000 requests per address per month, or roughly fourteen an hour, which is quiet enough to pass on many targets. The same 500,000 pages at 100 KB each is 50 GB, which at the per-GB rates above lands in the high tens to low hundreds of dollars. A small dedicated block wins when the target list is known and stable and the per-IP request rate stays inside what the site tolerates. Rotating supply wins when you need breadth, a high address count per unit of time, or geographies you cannot buy as a fixed block.
