Thankyou for this tutorial, i have been looking for this forever :) You are Fantastic!
i would like to redirect by region name

if not, is it possible by city?, i have tried the following but it is not working because i am obviously just guessing the code :)
although i would prefer redirect by region name…

$city = geoip_city_by_addr($gi, $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);

geoip_close($gi);

For checking east vs. west cost you can either check based by zipcode (postcal code) and comparing it with some huge zipcode db but probably it’s much easier to set them up depending of Latitude/Longitude.

It's really helped me get in the right direction. One problem though, could you give an example of how to redirect users based on city/region using the GeoLiteCity.dat. Basically I want to redirect everyone on the east coast to an east coast version of the site, and redirect west coast visitors to a west coast site. If I can accomplish that I will scream at the top of my lungs with happiness!! Thanks again Dinke! Hello, You are seriously awesome for providing this tutorial.

I'd like to use it so that if somebody enters the site at any point, they will be directed to the equivalent url on the target site. For example, if they enter on xyz.com/ipods, they will be redirected to xyz.com/redirect/ipods. If xyz.com/games, they will go to xyz.com/redirect/games. How can I use relative urls to accomplish this? Thanks! This script works a charm.

I was about to throw my computer out the window until I found this! I just have a question, because I'm a noob. I have multiple websites and I want to use this for all of them from the same location of the api. For example: If I place the 'geoip' folder in this location "/public_html/website-no-1" and I have the 'redirect.php' in the same location, it works great. But if I place the 'geoip' folder in "/public_html", so that I can use it for 'website-no-1' and 'website-no-2' I get an error. I'm sure it is because of this line: require_once("geoip/geoip.inc"); but I can't figure out what to write there instead of 'geoip'. I've tried '/public_html/geoip' and it doesn't work. Please help.

I just have a question, because I’m a noob. I have multiple websites and I want to use this for all of them from the same location of the api. For example:
If I place the ‘geoip’ folder in this location “/public_html/website-no-1″ and I have the ‘redirect.php’ in the same location, it works great.
But if I place the ‘geoip’ folder in “/public_html”, so that I can use it for ‘website-no-1′ and ‘website-no-2′ I get an error. I’m sure it is because of this line:
require_once(“geoip/geoip.inc”);
but I can’t figure out what to write there instead of ‘geoip’. I’ve tried ‘/public_html/geoip’ and it doesn’t work. Please help.
