IP2Location web service is a hosted, secure and automated XML based solution that help you to determine and identify geographical information of your online visitors in real time. By using this web service, you are able to know your online visitor's geographical location, such as country, region, city, latitude, longitude, ISP and domain name using proprietary IP address lookup database and technology without invading Internet user's privacy.

IP2Location web service allows you to gain better understanding about your online visitor by geographical location within a minute. It can be used for targeted ads, web log statistics, contents distribution by region for digital rights management and so on. Moreover, IP2Location web service is integrated via an XML-based web services interface to any product or platform. Sample codes are provided in various progamming languages to ease integration. It also provides multiple subscription levels with different prices based on your business needs.

The IP-Country database has over 99% accurate, which is higher than any of our competitors. The small number of inaccuracy is due to dynamic IP address allocation by large ISPs such as AOL and MSN TV. Due to the fact that AOL uses a network that routes all of the company's Internet traffic through Reston, Virginia, all IP-based geo-location services, including IP2Location, are unable to determine the state and city for people who dial into the AOL network.

The IP address is available from the web server variable "REMOTE_ADDR".
