how to redirect domain according to country IP address
Download the geoPlugin class from:
http://www.geoplugin.com/_media/webservices/geoplugin.class.phps
(free lookup limit of 120 requests per minute and block for 1h if crossed the limit. the block will automatically remove 1 hour after the last time your server stopped sending more than 120 requests a minute)
Put a index.php file in your root folder:
<?phprequire_once('geoplugin.class.php');$geoplugin = new geoPlugin();$geoplugin->locate();// create a variable for the country code$var_country_code = $geoplugin->countryCode;// redirect based on country code:if ($var_country_code == "AL") {header('Location: http://sq.wikipedia.org/');}else if ($var_country_code == "NL") {header('Location: http://nl.wikipedia.org/');}else {header('Location: http://en.wikipedia.org/');}?>
Here is a list of country codes:
Check that you have the mod_geoip module (GeoIP Extension) installed on your server.
Then, tweak your .htaccess
file accordingly :
GeoIPEnable OnGeoIPDBFile /path/to/GeoIP.dat# Start Redirecting countries# CanadaRewriteEngine onRewriteCond %{ENV:GEOIP_COUNTRY_CODE} ^CA$RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://ca.abcd.com$1 [L]# IndiaRewriteEngine onRewriteCond %{ENV:GEOIP_COUNTRY_CODE} ^IN$RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://in.abcd.com$1 [L]# etc etc etc...
And here's the official documentation.
You could do this without require_once('geoplugin.class.php');
like so:
<?php$a = unserialize(file_get_contents('http://www.geoplugin.net/php.gp?ip='.$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']));$countrycode= $a['geoplugin_countryCode'];if ($countrycode=='US') header( 'Location: http://example1.com' ) ;else header( 'Location: http://example2.com' ) ;?>
