   Mixed feelings

   We used their DC proxies and Residential proxies. Resi proxies were having quite low success rate. We had to use resi solution from other proxy providers. Unblocker didn't work well either also it was way too expensive.

   🏁 Competitors: Smartproxy, NetNut.io

   👍 Pros:    Cheap dc proxies

   👎 Cons:    Quite expensive|Residential proxies are worse than competitiors

• How I batch My Blogging Process for Greater Productivity

  The editing process is more of a checklist. Reading and re-reading out loud, just to see if the language flows well and if there are too many jumps in the flow, enhancing the article with images, research, and links where necessary, proofreading with Grammarly, etc. The last step is scheduling the posts that are ready onto a calendar.

• Find it Difficult To Work With Co-founders? So Don’t!

  Your job is to persuade your clients by making a great product and talking about it. Period. Think about it, if you have an idea and you are raring to go with it to the market, isn’t it unnatural and weird to first find a co-founder? Isn’t there something wrong with this picture? Yet, this is what some VCs insist on. However, if you happen to be discussing an idea with someone, and you both are enthusiastic about... Source: almost 3 years ago

• Updated rate limits for unauthenticated requests
