Hong Kong proxies

Hong Kong prices in its own dollar, reads in English and Traditional Chinese, and shops across a dense cluster of local chains and marketplaces. It is also where plenty of companies run their East Asian servers.

Which line

Buying for Hong Kong

Mo’s pick for Hong Kong

Start on Datacenter.

Most Hong Kong jobs are checks on your own site or retail pages loaded a few times a day. Your own site does not care what kind of address you are on, and at that pace most shop pages do not either, so a datacenter IP, labelled honestly as a server, is enough. If a marketplace starts sending challenge pages, move that job to ISP; Hong Kong is on both lists.

ISP and datacenter cost the same per IP right now, so the choice comes down to whether the site cares what kind of address you are on.

Why Hong Kong

What people check from here

Hong Kong checks split between local shopping and regional testing. Local jobs are price comparisons across electronics chains and marketplaces, in HKD with local delivery. Regional ones are about your own product: which language version a visitor in Hong Kong gets, whether prices show in HKD, and whether the page works at all for a visitor in a city many services use as their East Asian base.

Hong Kong questions

Will Hong Kong sites show me Chinese or English?

Either, depending on the site. Many Hong Kong sites have both and choose from your Accept-Language header or a switch on the page. Send zh-HK for Traditional Chinese and en-HK for English.

Hong Kong or Singapore for testing in Asia?

Whichever market you are checking. The exit decides which version of a site you get, not how fast it loads: Hong Kong shows you what a visitor in Hong Kong gets, Singapore what one in Singapore gets. Both are on the ISP and datacenter lists, so testing from each costs one more IP.

Ordering, stock and metering work the same in every country: see the locations page.
