US VPN – 
This post lists probably the best VPN providers that offer access to servers located in different locations from within the United States. Take a look and choose the one you consider more convenient.
What is a US VPN service?
A US VPN service is a VPN that offers access to one or more servers located in the United States. A more extended definition includes the VPN services that change your IP to a US one, but the actual server is not located in the United States. They provide basically the same service.
What is a US IP address?
A US IP address is an IP that is assigned to an ISP or hosting provider that provides Internet services in United States. The most common United States IPs have the following format:
- 3.0.0.0 to 12.255.255.255
- 13.0.0.0 to 13.63.255.255
- 15.0.0.0 to 22.255.255.255
- 26.0.0.0 to 32.127.255.255
- 33.0.0.0 to 35.127.255.255

How to choose a US VPN provider?
Firstly, take a look at the suggested providers from the list below. Your choice depends on your budget and on what you need. For each provider take a look at the number of locations in the United States and the number of IP addresses. Also, I recommend starting with the VPN services that offer a trial. You can easily setup a free account and see how they fit your needs.
List of US VPN services
And, here it is the list of recommended VPN services with servers and/or IPs in the United States:

What you can use a US VPN for
When one connects to such a server all the Internet traffic is redirected to that server. Basically, there are 2 obvious reasons for using a US VPN:
- Unlock geo-restricted sites (sites that are designed and offered to US users) like Hulu, Pandora, Netflix, Spotify.
- Encrypt your Internet traffic and protect yourself from sniffing attacks (this is for US users that already have access to all the above-mentioned sites).
Conclusion
Premium US VPN providers offer a large number of US server options, with unlimited bandwidth and great browsing speed. And, the prices vary from $4 to $15 per month.
Do you know other good VPN services that offer US IP addresses? Feel free to mention them in the comments.
Hi HideIP,
What’s the difference between using VPN services, and buying private proxies? Which is better?
I want to be able to use at least 20 different IP addresses per day (for creating accounts, scraping, etc.). How many IPs can a VPN service provide?
@YT – It depends on what you need them for. VPN services are more secure.
Regarding the number of IP addresses, there are VPN services like StrongVPN that offer hundreds of IP addresses, but the price is quite high. Private proxies are much more affordable.
Anyway, it is quite hard to find services that offer 20+ different IP addresses per day. Most of the providers rotate the IPs and many of them are blacklisted.
Thanks for sharing the information.
can you provide a list of free VPN also?
@Adi – Here is a list of free vpn services. It’s not entirely up to date but you can find some useful services there.
I get excellent speed from ibvpn and expressvpn. Highly recommended!
