PRLog -- IP2Location™
is a geolocation database product that enables web sites to pinpoint the location of Internet customers and other information about their visitors. This is done by taking the IP address of the visitor and querying the database to get information regarding the IP address such as country, region, state, city, latitude, longitude, zip code, Internet service provider (ISP), time zone, connection speed, domain name, IDD country code, area code and weather station using their IP addresses. It gives Web sites the ability to customize their websites in order to serve their customers better, such as displaying native languages and currency, redirect web pages based on geographical location, spam filtering by location and much more.
IP2Location™
has developed the extension module for DotNetNuke's content management system, an open source web platform based on Microsoft .Net technology. IP2Location™
introduces the IP2Location™
IP Country Redirection module, which is designed for DotNetNuke community and features a complete database from IP2Location™
IP-Country DB1, complete countries drop-down list, and the URL redirection. The module detects the web visitor's country via their IP address and redirects them to another page or URL address if that country has been blocked in the Country Configuration by DotNetNuke's administrators. For web visitors from a country that has not been blocked by administrators, the module will display the correct web visitor's country name on the module that is installed in the DotNetNuke based Website.
