ProxyHive

Proxies for ad verification

Load your ads and landing pages from the countries, cities and mobile carriers you pay to reach, and see exactly what those users see.

Recommended proxies

  • Follow redirects and log every hop.
  • Use carrier keys for mobile campaigns.
  • Check at the times your ads run.
  • Compare several IPs per location.

A setup that works

  1. 1

    List each campaign with its target countries, cities and carriers.

  2. 2

    Load the placement through a matching residential or mobile proxy.

  3. 3

    Record the ad, the landing page and every redirect hop.

  4. 4

    Repeat from several addresses to catch rotating creative.

Why ads must be checked locally

Ad networks decide what to show by the visitor's location, network and device. A campaign that looks correct from your office can show the wrong language, a broken landing page or a competitor's creative in another market. Checking from local residential and mobile addresses shows the real placement.

Catching cloaking and fraud

Bad actors show clean pages to known verification addresses and harmful ones to everyone else. Home and carrier IPs are not on those lists, so they see the same redirect chain as real users. Record every hop, compare across locations and flag differences.

Mobile inventory

For in app and mobile web inventory, use mobile proxies with carrier targeting so the ad server sees a phone on the network your campaign buys.

Ad verification: questions and answers

Why not verify ads from a VPN?
VPN and hosting addresses are well known and are often shown a different page. Residential and mobile IPs see what real users see.
Can I target a mobile carrier?
Yes. Add carrier-<name> with the country key on mobile plans.
How many checks can I run?
There is no request limit. Plans count gigabytes, and a typical ad check with its landing page uses 1 MB to 5 MB.
