Every scraping API page, ours included, is built from advertised prices and claimed pool sizes. Those two materials cannot tell you what you actually need to know, so this page spends most of its length on what they leave out.
What is on file for ScrapeBox
You will find them at scrapebox.com. In our own records they sit in the scraping API category.
We have no verified current rate for ScrapeBox on file. Printing a guess would make this page worse than useless, so the price row below is empty and the reading list is not.
Check the reachable rate, the minimum, the expiry terms and the failure billing, and date your note. A price without those four attached is not a price.
Their own description, read this week
Their homepage title, read on 9 September 2026: "ScrapeBox - The Swiss Army Knife of SEO!". Written for search engines, their description says: "ScrapeBox the Ultimate Link Harvester, Mass Wordpress and Movable Type Blog Comment Poster Complete with PR Storm Mode and Bulk Pagerank Checker."
Reading the same page for the things buyers actually ask about:
Payment methods mentioned: cards. Support is advertised as around the clock. We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.
All of the above is their copy, not our finding. A dated quotation is the weakest kind of evidence that is still evidence.
How long ScrapeBox has been trading
The domain was registered on 7 October 2009, through NameCheap, Inc, which makes it about 16 years old. The lookup behind those dates ran on 9 September 2026. As things stand the domain is held to 7 October 2030.
None of it predicts success rate. It is here because domain age and archive depth are free to check, and a provider whose public record starts last quarter deserves a smaller first order.
Whether anyone is still working on it
Our crawl of their site found 70 pages carrying a date. The oldest is from January 2016 and the newest from January 2016.
The most recent date on the site is more than twelve months old. Sites do go quiet without the service going with them, but a year of silence is worth one email to support before you fund an account.
What people actually search about ScrapeBox
Worldwide, the brand carries about 50 searches a month: 20 a month for an alternative to them, 20 a month for their pricing and 10 a month for a review of them. Figures read from Google Keyword Planner on 9 September 2026.
The largest share is people looking for a way out, which is the honest starting point for a page like this one.
The top bid on those terms reaches $7.35 a click. That is the market pricing its own customers, and it explains why almost every other result you found is an affiliate page.
What you still do not know after reading their site
Concurrency limits decide throughput
Rate limits are often enforced per account rather than per plan, which means buying more traffic does not raise them. Confirm how yours scales before you assume a bigger plan runs faster.
The rate behind the sales call
The lowest published rate in this market usually sits behind a monthly commitment measured in thousands. Quoting it beside a pay as you go rate is not a comparison. Compare the rate you can reach today.
Why an old benchmark is wrong
Every review of this market, this one included, is a photograph of a moving thing. Read the date on any comparison you find, and discount it heavily once it is more than a few months old.
The two of us, on the questions that matter
Compare on these rows and ignore the feature lists on both sites:
| Question to ask | ScrapeBox | HProxy |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | Not verified by us, read their page | From $0.44/GB, pay as you go |
| Does unused balance expire? | Not published clearly, ask before paying | Never |
| Minimum commitment | Check the current terms, this one moves | None |
| Identity checks | Their terms page answers this | Card orders are screened, and verification is sometimes requested |
| Targeting | Worth confirming in writing before you commit | Country, city and ISP |
| Free way to evaluate | Read their current terms | Free proxy list and proxy checker |
A table like this can rank the things that are written down. It cannot rank the thing that matters most, which is how the network behaves against the site you care about.
What to do instead of reading more comparisons
The steps below take about ten minutes and settle the question properly.
- Put a few dollars on each account. Trials are fine for a first look, but paid traffic is what you will actually be buying.
- Run them against the site you actually care about, using the code you actually run, within the same hour.
- Track the success rate and the bandwidth. A cheap gigabyte that fails half the time is not cheap.
- Run a sample of the addresses through an independent lookup, because advertised geography and actual geography differ more often than the market admits.
- Keep the winner, and repeat the whole thing quarterly, because pools age.
Comparable providers
We hold the same record for these, and the same honest limits apply to each:
- Coresignal alternatives
- Crustdata alternatives
- Ficstar alternatives
- Import.io alternatives
- MMOAPI alternatives
- Parsera alternatives
Our own position
Our end of it is a wallet, four proxy types and no contract. Residential begins at $0.44 per GB and the balance does not expire. The free proxy list and checker are open to anyone, and they are the fastest way to see how we treat measurement before you spend anything.
