# Rotating Proxies

Rotating proxies work and functional just like normal proxies, but instead of the end IP being static, unless otherwise configured, the IP will change with each request. This type of proxy is incredibly useful for a vast range of reasons, however it is typically used for scraping or automation software to avoid limits/blocks.

At Suborbit.al, we provide two main types of rotating proxies, Rotating Residential Proxies and Rotating Mobile Proxies. The main difference is that the Residential proxy will have an IP assigned by a residential ISP - this has the benefit of appearing as a real user and is very unlikely to be blocked. On the other hand, a Mobile proxy will have an IP assigned by a mobile IP such as Verizon or AT\&T, similar to residential proxies, these are unlikely to be blocked. We offer both types of proxies as everyone has different use cases and may find better success with Mobile instead of Residential.

Please be aware that our Mobile rotating proxies are limited to specific plans and come at a slightly higher $/gb.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://documentation.suborbit.al/proxies/rotating-proxies.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
