Alignable Mobile Proxies for Local Business Network Monitoring
Alignable is a referral network for small business owners, organised by town. Members recommend each other, post in local groups, answer questions and vote in local awards, and the feed each member sees is built from businesses near them. A business that joins to pick up referrals wants to know how its profile reads to owners in its own area, whether recommendations are showing, and whether its posts reach the local feed. All of that depends on location, and an account that signs in from scattered networks gets flagged on a platform whose whole purpose is local trust. Dedicated Mobile Proxies gives you a carrier modem in your metro, with no other customer on it.
A network where the feed is your town
Alignable builds a member's experience from their declared location and the businesses around it. The feed shows posts from nearby members and local groups. Search returns businesses by distance. Recommendations carry more weight from nearby members. Public profile pages, which are visible without an account, show the business, its recommendations and the local connections, and the public search defaults to the visitor's area.
A carrier address in Boston resolves to the Boston area, so public pages and search from our Boston modem show what a Boston business owner would see. Our modems hold AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon SIMs in eight US metros. A data centre address lands the public search somewhere unhelpful and makes an account login look like it came from nowhere in particular.
Monitoring your profile and recommendations
Open your public profile from the metro modem and record the recommendation count, the connections, the latest posts and how the profile ranks in the public search for your category in your area. Recommendations arrive and occasionally disappear when a member leaves; a daily reading catches both. Compare with the two or three local competitors in your category, whose public profiles are visible to anyone.
Recommendations on Alignable are supposed to come from businesses that actually know you, and the platform looks for recommendation rings. The modem does not make a fake recommendation less fake. Its job is to give you an accurate, local reading of what is real.
The account on one local address
Alignable expects a business account to behave like one business in one place. An owner who signs in from a phone on the road, a laptop at a coffee shop and the shop's own Wi-Fi presents three networks in a day; an agency managing several owners' accounts with permission presents a worse pattern. Verification prompts and feed restrictions follow. A modem in the business's metro gives the account one origin: one carrier, one city, an address held as long as the carrier keeps it, and no second customer on the hardware to rotate it.
Related businesses under one owner can share one modem. Unrelated businesses should not. Monthly plans are $69 on 4G and $79 on 5G, with unlimited data, so a daily routine of profile reads and feed sessions is never a cost question.
Posting, groups and local awards
Posting to local groups, answering questions and taking part in the local awards are all done from the account, and all of them are shaped by location. A post from an account that looks local lands in the local feed; a post from an account whose origin wanders may not. Awards voting is one business one vote, and Alignable enforces it; the modem is not a way around that and should not be used as one. It is a way to keep one legitimate business looking like one legitimate business, from the town it actually trades in.
Setup in a few lines
Order the modem in your metro and route a browser profile through it. Confirm the public search opens on your area. Record your profile figures and your competitors'. Sign in to the business account from the same profile and leave the address alone. A two-hour test at $2 on 4G or $3 on 5G lets you confirm the location reading before committing to a month. Moves between our cities are free and keep the remaining time.

Alignable proxy questions
Does Alignable's public search use the modem's location?
Yes. The carrier address resolves to the metro, and public search defaults to that area.
Can I run several business accounts through one modem?
Only businesses under the same owner. Unrelated accounts should each have their own modem.
Will the modem help with awards voting?
No. One business, one vote, and the platform enforces it. The modem keeps your one account looking local.
What plan fits a daily check?
Monthly, at $69 on 4G or $79 on 5G, with unlimited data.
