A self-contained GeoIP Redirection script that utilizes the native PHP GeoIP library, Geo API and Browser Language.
- Very simple to install, 3 steps and you’re done!
- Uses accurate PHP GeoIP functions.
- Incase you don’t have these enabled (GoDaddy shared customers), it will fallback to using a reliable API to determine the users country.
- For added protection or incase the API returns an unexpected result, it uses the browser language in a last attempt of a possible redirect.
- Users will know no different, no waiting, no loading bars, seamless redirection.
- Utilizes PHP $_SESSIONS for optimisation and security.
- Uses a Search Friendly 302 redirect.
- Transfers any query strings in the URL to the new location.
