Proxies for social media are needed when more than two or three accounts are managed from one workstation: SMM agencies, marketing teams with several brands, community admins. Platforms link accounts by IP address, and a restriction on one profile spills over to the others.
ProxyFarm supplies mobile proxies from Russian carriers MTS, Beeline, MegaFon and Tele2 from 490 ₽/mo (≈ $5) and dedicated IPv4 from 79 ₽/mo (≈ $0.85). HTTPS and SOCKS5 run on the same port, and access arrives automatically 2 minutes after payment.
Pricing for social media proxies

Ground rules for any platform
Social networks differ in their algorithms, but at the IP level the requirements are similar. One account, one permanent address: changing the IP of a live profile without a reason triggers a verification request. The address region should match the audience region and the profile details.
The second layer is the browser fingerprint. A proxy changes only the IP, so each account gets a separate profile in an anti-detect browser or a separate device. If the profiles share one browser, the proxy alone will not break the link between accounts.
The third layer is behaviour. New accounts on a mobile IP are run at a calm pace for the first two or three weeks: follows, views, occasional posts. Mass actions from day one get noticed regardless of the proxy.
Proxies for VKontakte
VKontakte (VK) is Russia's largest social network and the main platform for Russian businesses, and both address types work here. Running two to five communities from aged accounts is fine on dedicated IPv4 proxies from 79 ₽ per IP: a Russian IP issued to one customer, no neighbours.
For registering new pages, VK Ads accounts and working with dozens of communities, take mobile proxies. It pays to buy a VK proxy in the audience's region right away: ProxyFarm's farms are in Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Kazan, so a community for Saint Petersburg is run from a Saint Petersburg IP.
Every address is checked against spam databases and for platform access before delivery. If an IP does not fit, we replace it free within the first 24 hours.
Proxies for TikTok and YouTube
Proxies for TikTok are almost always mobile. The platform is built around smartphones, and a 4G/LTE carrier IP shared by thousands of real subscribers looks natural to it. Rotation by link or timer lets you pin a session to each account, and traffic is unlimited — enough for video uploads.
Proxies for YouTube are needed by channel owners with several accounts and by agencies managing clients: Google links accounts by IP just like the other platforms. For channels aimed at a Russian audience, dedicated IPv4 works; for regional channels and checking recommendations in another country, residential proxies with city-level targeting in 48 countries from 290 ₽/GB.
Channel speed matters for long video uploads: a dedicated ProxyFarm mobile device reaches 40 Mbit/s; see mobile proxies.
Proxies for Facebook
Facebook reacts to data-center addresses and geo mismatches more harshly than the others. For accounts aimed at a foreign audience and for ad accounts, take residential proxies in sticky-session mode: a home ISP IP is held for up to 30 minutes, and the next login gets an address from the same city.
For Russian accounts, mobile proxies fit. Separate account, separate IP, separate browser profile: this rule matters more on Facebook than on any other network. A detailed breakdown for advertising is on the proxies for affiliate marketing page.

FAQ
Which proxies are better for social media — mobile or IPv4?
For aged accounts aimed at a Russian audience, dedicated IPv4 from 79 ₽/mo is enough. For registering new profiles, TikTok and working with dozens of accounts, mobile is more reliable: a carrier IP is shared by thousands of real users.
How many accounts can I run through one proxy?
We recommend one IP per account, two at most. On a mobile plan, a new IP for the next account is obtained via the rotation link; for a large network take a dedicated device at 2 500 ₽/mo.
Do I need an anti-detect browser if I have a proxy?
Yes, if there is more than one account on the computer. The proxy changes the IP, but the platform also sees the browser fingerprint. ProxyFarm proxies go into Dolphin Anty, AdsPower and similar profiles over SOCKS5 or HTTPS with login and password.
Can I get a proxy for another country?
Yes. Dedicated IPv4 is available in 17 countries, residential proxies in 48 countries with city-level targeting. Mobile channels are Russian carriers in Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Kazan.
What if the network asked for verification after connecting the proxy?
Check that the IP region matches the account's history and the browser's time zone. If the address does not suit the platform, contact support within the first 24 hours and we will replace it free or refund.
