What is Geolocation and What are All the Premium Proxy Countries?
Many websites tailor their content based on the visitor’s location. For example, Amazon displays different products and prices on its UK (.co.uk) and French (.fr) sites. If you’re scraping data from these sites, using a regional IP ensures that you receive the correct localized content. Also some websites restrict access to their content based on geographic location.
To avoid discrepancies caused by regional variations, such as different products being displayed on a retailer’s website, you can send a specific country code with your request. This ensures that your request is localized to the desired country, allowing you to obtain consistent and replicable results.
ZenRows supports proxies from numerous countries around the world. You can use any country’s ISO code to configure your proxies.
Here is the comprehensive list of premium proxy countries supported by ZenRows:
How to use it with each product:

parameter to the WebSocket URL:
In SDK mode, specify the country when generating the connection URL:
By using the right proxy, you can ensure more reliable and geographically relevant data scraping while maintaining compliance with website policies.
