Same product, different names
Webshare calls them static residential proxies; Geonode calls them ISP proxies. Both mean static IPs registered to consumer internet providers and hosted on servers: residential-looking, fast and unchanging. Background in ISP proxies.
Side by side
| Webshare static residential | Geonode ISP | |
|---|---|---|
| Entry (list, Oct 2026) | $0.30 per IP, 20 IPs ($6/month), base plan | $1.75 shared or $3.50 dedicated per IP (3 to 4 IPs) |
| At volume | $0.225 per IP at 10,000 | $1.25 shared or $2.25 dedicated at 1,000+ |
| Minimum | 20 IPs on the smallest listed plan | 3 IPs |
| Bandwidth | Plan setting, up to unlimited under fair use | Unmetered |
| Exclusivity | Private (small sharing) or dedicated | Shared or dedicated |
| Speed | Up to 1 Gbps advertised | Server-grade |
| Named ISPs | AT&T, Sprint, Cox, Comcast, RCN, Lumen and others | Varies by location |
| Trial | Not in the free plan | No trial |
Price
Webshare's base per-IP price is far lower. Two things narrow the gap:
- Bandwidth. Geonode ISP bandwidth is unmetered; on Webshare, higher bandwidth settings cost more.
- Exclusivity. Compare dedicated with dedicated. Webshare's dedicated static IPs cost more than the base plan.
Price the exact configuration you need on both sites. See pricing compared.
Minimum order
Geonode's 3-IP minimum suits very small setups (a few accounts). Webshare's smallest listed static plan is 20 IPs, which is still only a few dollars.
Locations
ISP proxy locations are limited at every provider, because they depend on ISP partnerships. Check both for the countries (and US states) you need. If you need several countries, you may end up using both.
Proxy tip: If you need managed scraping rather than raw proxies, Geonode also sells a Scraper API with a free monthly allowance, which Webshare doesn't offer. More in Geonode ISP proxies.
Best uses
| Job | Notes |
|---|---|
| Social and marketplace accounts | One dedicated IP per account on either |
| Antidetect browser profiles | Either; Geonode integrates with several antidetect browsers |
| Sneaker checkouts | Test both on your sites; dedicated IPs only |
| Long browser sessions | Either |
| Whitelisted integrations | Either |
See antidetect browsers compared and sneakers compared.
Verdict
- Webshare for the lowest cost per static IP, especially at larger counts.
- Geonode for unmetered bandwidth, a 3-IP minimum and simple shared or dedicated pricing.
- For accounts that matter, buy dedicated IPs on either and test reputation before use.
Checklist before buying ISP IPs from either
- Countries and states available.
- Dedicated vs shared, and the price of each.
- Bandwidth included.
- Replacement policy for flagged IPs.
- Minimum order and billing period.
- Whether IPs come from several subnets.
Testing a batch
- Buy a small number from each provider in your key country.
- Check ASN and geolocation.
- Test against your main targets at realistic behaviour.
- Record challenges and latency per IP.
- Scale with the provider whose batch performs best.
Subnet diversity
If all your ISP IPs share one subnet and a target flags it, every account on it suffers. Ask each provider about subnet spread, and consider splitting large account portfolios across both providers for resilience.
Budget tip: Many teams end up using both: Webshare for cheap per-IP datacenter and static residential lists, Geonode for per-GB residential traffic that doesn't expire. Start with Webshare static residential proxies.
Long-term costs
ISP IPs are long-lived, so the monthly price compounds. Over a year, the per-IP difference between providers adds up for large portfolios; for a handful of IPs, convenience and bandwidth terms may matter more.
A real-world example
A reseller operation with 120 marketplace accounts compares ISP offers. At list prices, 120 dedicated IPs cost far less per month on Webshare than on Geonode, but the operation also downloads large product catalogs through those IPs, so bandwidth matters. They price Webshare with a higher bandwidth setting and still find it cheaper, then split 20 accounts onto Geonode ISP IPs for resilience against a subnet being flagged.

Key takeaways
- Webshare's static residential and Geonode's ISP proxies are the same type of product.
- Webshare is far cheaper per IP at list prices; Geonode includes unmetered bandwidth and has a 3-IP minimum.
- Compare dedicated with dedicated, and include bandwidth needs.
- Check location availability on both; ISP coverage is limited everywhere.
- Test batches on your targets and consider splitting portfolios for resilience.
FAQ
Are Webshare static residential and Geonode ISP proxies the same thing?
Yes, both are ISP-registered static IPs hosted on servers.
Which has unlimited bandwidth?
Geonode ISP bandwidth is unmetered. Webshare offers up to unlimited as a plan setting, under a fair use policy.
Which is better for sneakers?
It depends on the site and the IP batch. Test both before release day.
Do ISP proxies rotate?
No. They're static IPs that stay the same.
Can I replace a flagged ISP IP?
Check each provider's replacement policy; Webshare supports manual replacements within plan allowances.
Which has more ISP locations?
Coverage changes often; check both for your specific countries.
Editorial note: Proxy providers change their pools, features and prices often, so treat any figures here as typical ranges at the time of writing and confirm current terms with the provider before you buy.
