Using a cloaker and having trouble promoting a high volume of unique domains (100+). Let’s say I have 33 domains hosted at one hosting company, 33 domains hosted at another hosting company and 33 domains hosted at another hosting company.
This means 33 of the domains will have the same server IP and DNS which seems to be a footprint which results in IG banning accounts.
My question is:
About how many domains can you host at the same company (same server IP and DNS) before it raises red flags at IG?
Is my best option to buy domains, a VPS with a web server along with 20 dedicated IPs and point 5 domains to each IP?
My cloaker is PHP based so I can’t use free website builders like weebly / tumblr as they don’t allow PHP. It would require me to use a pre-lander which I don’t think is the most optimal option for me.
Currently I’m only using cheap TLD’s, 1 domain per IG acc.
I only have a fairly shitty JS cloaker which identifies IG based on screen resolution. All low resolutions gets to lander, high resolutions don’t. Also I believe IG is scanning the DOM data and would therefore identify a fingerprint when they see the lander URL when they read the JS code.
The beginning won’t cause u any problem. It’s in the later stage they will do one sweep house clean.
I’m more interested in how you perform js redirect. Based on my test, of course i didn’t input any identifying variable to detect IG useragent, but IG gets through because they can parse js. [Debunking] Want to know how and how far does IG Crawl?

But i have to say, if you truly managed to stop them at their tracks before the redirect happens, then there’s no need to worry that much about the IP as of now. In the future (near or far), they might do a new algo to target based on IP, but now they’re mainly still on domain name and final destination since there aren’t reports of IP banning.
Yes you would. You can enter a comma separated list of the domains when you “add a domain” … then just go change name servers at your registrar at your convenience.
I really don’t agree with this. I’ve got tons of sites on the same CF account. Yes, they give you different name servers for each account, but I really don’t see the point in setting up 100 cloudflare accounts.
If someone really wanted to find out where you were hosted, could they? Sure, there are ways. Is IG really going to go to that trouble on an account by account basis? I could be wrong, but I highly doubt it. Like I said, are they going to ban everyone who’s footprint matches matt.ns.cloudflare.com? Again, I doubt it.
Why have they went with using browser emulation that can parse js while FB pretty much still can’t? No one really can answer that, but that goes to show they are constantly evolving.
