Anyone who is engaged in Amazon's e-commerce industry knows that when our stores open multiple accounts to operate, we must beware of the platform's associated tracking. Many merchants just don't pay attention to this and lead to the closure of stores and multiple accounts, resulting in a lot of economic losses. . And which of the two most mainstream anti-association tools in the industry, vps and fingerprint browsers, is better?

Vps

( 1 ) vps overview

The full name of VPS is Virtual Private Server , and the Chinese name is virtual private server. We can isolate multiple server environments on physical servers through these virtual servers. The use of vps for anti-association is based on this principle.

When we are in a virtual online world, we cannot know the appearance, age, and gender of other people. All we can know is the IP address and account cookie of the other party , and the account association mechanism of major e-commerce platforms such as Amazon is based on this. as a basis for judgment.

Therefore, it was first discovered that VPS can simulate different IP addresses in the virtual network , thereby isolating the IP environment of each account , so as to avoid the IP association mechanism of each e-commerce platform

Nowadays, because most merchants used VPS anti-association in the early days, e-commerce platforms such as Amazon have been able to detect the difference between the simulated IP of the vps and the normal IP , so as to upgrade the IP association mechanism to the browser fingerprint technology, so now VPS is used for accounts. If the association is prevented, the stability cannot be guaranteed, and the risk is also very high.

( 3 ) Difficulty of operation

V ps is an early traditional anti-association mode, and its IP is independent through the IP of the computer room , so its application scene must be limited to a fixed office scene, so it also takes into account the management and linking of equipment, which is not only difficult to operate , the efficiency is low, and the equipment cost is also increased.

Fingerprint browser

( 1 ) Overview of Fingerprint Browser

Fingerprint browser, it is not a fingerprint browser used to visit other sites in our traditional definition, it is more like a means to counter browser fingerprint tracking.

What is browser fingerprinting? In fact, like our fingerprints, they are unique, including: IP address, cookies cache, device storage, time zone, UA and other information. Major e-commerce platforms use browser fingerprints to determine the identity of each account. When When we open multiple accounts and it is found that the fingerprints are the same, we will face the risk of being banned.

The application of fingerprint browsers in anti-association is to simulate different browser fingerprint information when multiple accounts surf the Internet, so that the platform cannot associate our accounts together through browser fingerprints.

Fingerprint browser is an anti-association product that has only become popular in recent years. It digs deep into the bottom layer of the association mechanism of e-commerce platforms. In addition to isolating IP , it can also isolate cookies , UA , device environment and other information that can be recorded by browser fingerprints. In this way, multiple accounts are opened and they are not related to each other, and each account has an independent environment.

In addition to the good anti-association effect, the fingerprint browser also integrates various functions such as: batch account import, management, rpa automatic account maintenance, etc., which greatly increases the operational efficiency of merchants.

( 3 ) Difficulty of operation

The fingerprint browser only needs to download the software on the official website, and it can be used directly. Just like the AdsPower fingerprint browser, it not only has a simple page, but also provides a free version trial, as well as an operation tutorial, which is very easy to use.

Summarize

In general, VPS has been gradually phased out, because fingerprint browsers are better in terms of richness of functions, cost and difficulty of operation, so choosing a good fingerprint browser is very important for our cross-border electricity. Business is very helpful.
