Warming up your browser profiles is like breaking in new sneakers – take it slow, and they’ll fit like a glove. Follow these best practices to blend in like a pro and avoid unwanted attention from websites.

Use high-quality IP addresses

Not all IPs are created equal. Using a poor-quality or frequently changing IP can raise red flags. Here’s how to keep your browsing smooth and under the radar:

• Stick with premium residential proxies (Multilogin proxy solution is solid)
• Keep your IP location consistent – jumping around too much makes sites suspicious

Build a cookie history

Websites love a good history – it makes you look real. Fresh profiles with zero cookies? Highly suspicious. Here’s how to build trust naturally:

• Spend a few days browsing casually – think of it as stretching before a workout
• Let cookies pile up naturally or use our in-built tools: Cookie import, Pre-made cookies, and CookieRobot

Visit relevant websites

Your browsing habits should match your profile’s intended use. Random, erratic behavior can make you stand out. Keep it natural with these steps:

• Hit up sites that match your profile’s purpose. Running social media? Scroll, like, and explore
• Act natural: open multiple tabs, switch between them, and don’t just sit on one page

Start slowly

Jumping in too fast can trigger security systems. Think of it like entering a new gym – start light before lifting heavy. Here’s how:

• No need to flex immediately – avoid sketchy moves like bulk messaging or rapid purchases
• Warm up with Google searches, scrolling, and clicking links – just like you normally would

Use realistic timelines

Real users don’t have robotic schedules. If your profile logs in at the same time every day like clockwork, that’s a red flag. Instead:

• Mix up your activity times – real people don’t browse on a timer
• Spread out your actions instead of speed-running your profile setup

Mimic human behavior

Nothing screams "bot" like unnatural behavior. You want your actions to look like they belong to a real person. Try these strategies:

• Scroll, click, and browse at a natural pace – no speed-scrolling marathons
• Shake things up. Don’t always follow the same sequence (search → click → like → repeat)
• Fill out profiles step by step. Upload a profile pic, tweak the bio, connect with people – slow and steady wins the race
• Type manually when filling forms – copy-pasting can scream bot behavior
• If you're into e-commerce, start with small buys before dropping big bucks

Engage with content

Real users interact. If your profile just exists without engaging, it can raise suspicion. Here’s how to blend in:

• On social media, like posts, watch videos, and leave comments – act like you belong
• Shopping? Add things to your cart, but don’t check out instantly. No one impulse-buys everything in one go
• Subscribe to newsletters, open emails – build some email trust
• Browse region-specific content that matches your proxy location (local news, services, etc.)

By following these steps, you’ll make your browser profiles feel like home in no time. Take it easy, keep it real, and let your profile settle in naturally.
