IP2Location
I admit to being a very nosy person. I want to find out who my readers are and who sends me email. I can check on the country, general location, ISP, and more about a person just by knowing their IP Address. It is very easy to find an IP address as it is listed on the email’s routing information.
Fortune 500 companies use this information and now, you can use it too! IP2LOCATION, is a geo IP solution to help you to identify a visitor’s geographical location. Without invading a visitor’s privacy, you can see what country, region and even the city where they are located. The deep thinkers are able to use the latitude and longitude information that is also used. I have no idea what that would be used for but if they need it, well good for them for knowing how! I can get a ZIP code, time zone, connection speed, ISP and domain name, IDD country code, area code, and with the new DB15-DB18 packages, I can get the weather station code and name all by using a proprietary IP address lookup database and technology system.
There is a free demo at http://www.ip2location.com/demo.aspx for you to try the system out for yourself. While there, check out the free webmaster tools.
