By default, Visualping will crawl the website using a United States (California) IP addresses. However, there are many different proxies from various locations that can be used instead depending on your use case. For example, you can use the Canada proxy to monitor the Canadian version of a website with unique content or use the Germany proxy when monitoring a domain ending in (.de) so it loads faster. You can set a specific proxy location for each job using the "Proxy" dropdown menu in the Adjustments

section.

We currently offer the following proxy locations for all users. We're working on adding more proxy location options in the future and if you have any suggestions, feel free to share them with us.
