What exactly is an proxy server for HTTP?

HTTP is interpreted by its acronym HyperText Transfer Protocol, and it acts as an intermediary between you, the user, and the website that the user wants to access.
Here's what happens when you request to access a particular site while an HTTP proxy server is on:
-
After the client sends the request to the web page wishes to access (which generally happens by clicking the link) it is important to note that the web request is not sent directly to the server for the website. Instead, it's routed to an HTTP proxy first;
-
After the request is acknowledged in the HTTP proxy, it is reviewed, and finally all the information is used to create a subsequent demand, the one which will be forwarded to the web server. This is to make it possible for you to mask your IP address in order that the web server cannot access your private information.
-
Once when the HTTP proxy server forwards the HTTP request to the web server, it is processed by the server of the destination in order that the response to the client is constructed;
-
After that, you simply receive the answer by the web server. It's either in the process of allowing you access to desired site or not allowing you to access it.
After all of these steps are outlined in writing and analyzed, it can appear like there is a lot needed to be carried out by the client as well as the HTTP proxies for the requests to be made. If a top-quality proxy service like ProxyWOW is utilized this entire procedure will need milliseconds of time to complete.

Requests for HTTP traffic sent directly to a remote server on the website in a format of plain text. This means the security of the site isn't at its best as a large amount of sensitive information like your passwords and credit cards numbers can be easily observed by anyone. We do not want that to be the case with an intermediary.
-
HTTPS proxy uses an upgraded HTTPS protocol that encrypted the information using the CONNECT method so that only those who are on the server remote of the HTTPS website is able to see details in the request that the client submits.
-
There are two types of protocols that could be used via an HTTPS proxy to create what is known as a TCP connection between clients and servers in the network. Both are named Secure Sockets Layer (or SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS).
