Extracting the Country from the IP Address:- How To?

So, we've seen how we can get the Country of a Visitor to our website using a free database & a few lines of simple ASP code.

This technique can be implemented in many ways, it just ask for your creativity.
As I mentioned in the starting, there are quite a few services available for obtaining the Country from an IP Address. Not only that, if you don't mind paying, you can also get the State, City, ISP, Currency, etc of the Visitor. This kind of database is available for a fee at www.ip-to-location.com.

Also available on their website is a component through which you can look up the country, state, city, isp, etc.of the visitor without actually buying the database & hosting it on your web-server, since the database containing that much amount of information is quite bulky.
