While living in digital times, you can hardly imagine a business that isn’t using social media for marketing. Most businesses either use automatic tools to make their social marketing more efficient or hire agencies that help them out with social marketing strategies and all the tasks that are needed to be done to promote the brand and increase sales. *But there is one more extra key that is needed when working with automatic tools — proxies*. **In this article I will talk more about one of the proxy providers that I’ve tried — [Metrow](https://metrow.com/) — and will review it and how it can be used for social media marketing and much more.**

**Automated social marketing**
Social media platforms help you connect with your customers, increase your brand awareness, and boost your leads and sales. But working on social media requires a lot of time and knowledge and because of that a lot of us are using automatic tools. Some of the tools are designed for a specific social network, some of them can be used on different platforms without any problems. The most important thing is how those tools can help you with social marketing tasks. Here are some of the features that can be found in those automatic tools:
- Scheduling posts;
- Automatic (un)likes/(un)follows/comments;
- Hashtags/relevant groups research;
- Find and extract targeted users;
- Automatically managing direct messages;
- Spin syntax.

Automated tools for social marketing often do the magic and help you to save a lot of time and other resources but that’s not all. You also need to use proxy services. **Proxies are especially needed when you’re managing multiple accounts on different platforms and you want to avoid being detected and getting an IP ban** which is very common when working with automatic tools and not having enough experience or knowledge. **This is where Metrow comes in and can help you out.**

**What is Metrow?**
Metrow is a residential proxy provider that specializes in several areas:
- [Social media proxies](https://metrow.com/social-media-proxies/);
- [Craigslist proxies](https://metrow.com/craigslist-proxy/);
- [Ticketing](https://metrow.com/ticketing-proxies/).

**Metrow offers you high-quality residential proxies that are block-free so they are very great when it comes to creating and managing multiple accounts and avoiding IP blocks**. Since the IPs in Metrow proxy pool are checked, you can be sure that you won’t get IPs that might be already flagged or blocked on social networks and that would make your work much easier.

Metrow proxies will act as mediator IPs between you and the network. What does that mean? Well, once you integrate these proxies into your chosen bot or automation tool or you configure the proxies on your browser/device, your queries will be routed through real desktop and mobile device IPs before they reach the targeted website. This provider can offer you a pool of 10 million IPs — that’s a lot and definitely can meet every customer’s needs when it comes to having trustworthy proxies for social marketing tasks.
Metrow proxies will lower your chances of getting IP blocks and IP bans while managing your accounts (and you will not get your home IP address exposed and blocked either). You can use a different proxy (IP) for every account or action. You can also access restricted content, restricted websites, and even the target audience that is in a different location. **Metrow doesn’t have a country or a request limit, so you can choose your IP source from over 190 locations.**

**How to use Metrow proxies?**
**Metrow proxies are a really great option for freelancers, small businesses, and agencies that work with social marketing tasks or retail and want to save their resources but at the same time getting the best possible results.** While using Metrow services, I was able to check some of its features. What was really great is the fact that you can use these proxies with various different automated tools (Jarvee, Sendible, SEMrush, etc.) — it works perfectly fine with all of them.
Since Metrow provides you with rotating IP addresses, you don’t need to worry about your IPs being detected or that it will affect your work. From my experience, I was also able to confirm that Metrow proxies are a great option to:
- Avoid geo-blocks;
- Avoid IP ban;
- Avoid action blocks (this is very common when working on Instagram);
- To automate online processes.

Since I was testing these proxies several times with several different automated tools on different social media platforms, **I can confirm that not only Metrow services are legit, they definitely are very useful and can help you to put your social marketing game on another level.** I’ve been looking for something that is simple to understand and work with and Metrow definitely was a great choice as a proxy provider.

Besides, Metrow offers an Exclusive US proxies pool — the IPs there are not used in any other pool and can be a very useful option for those who especially work on the US market (you can get access to this pool while purchasing their PLUS plan).

When it comes to the pricing, Metrow services aren’t cheap but the price is very competitive and you definitely get what you pay for. Metrow offers **[3 different pricing plans](https://metrow.com/pricing/)** to meet your needs. All plans are based on monthly subscriptions that auto-renew every month.

If you’re not sure which plan you should choose or what features you need to have for your specific case, you can always contact the Metrow team — they are ready to help you with professional advices. Sometimes you aren’t exactly sure which plan is the best for you and will it be enough for the work you do. Especially if you’re new in this field of work. Because of that, Metrow also offers a trial so you can see for yourself how the proxies work. You just need to fill out their [“contact us”](https://metrow.com/contact-us/) form, tell them your needs, and their sales people will get back to you with their best trial offer. Before choosing the plan that met my needs I also contacted these sales people and was surprised with all the professional help I got as well as with their quick communication and all the answers for the questions I could ask. This showed that not only they look at their work in a professional manner but also can be a provider you will be working with for a long time.
