Ok guys, i found the greatest (free) tool for webmasters!
So, i never really paid attention to the fact that i was sending forign traffic to my sponsor that wasnt converting. All it does it make the stats look bad.So i found a tool that will let you geo-ip your ads on your site. Meaning, lets say one visitor is from the US - he will see a ad for a us sponsor and the other chinese one will see an ad for a dialor or w/e. This is not one of those "look at surfers browser" type of things. This looks at the ip and determins the country. Im not really good at explaining things but i will do my best here! mkkay
Step by step:
1. Download these files:
- GeoIP.dat from http://www.maxmind.com/app/geoip_country (they update the geo every month)
- geoip.inc from http://www.maxmind.com/download/geoip/api/php/
and put them in the folder where your php banner script will be.
2. The php banner script
3. Look at my sig and sign up
hehe, not really but you should!

$gi = geoip_open("GeoIP.dat",GEOIP_STANDARD);
$visitor_country_code=geoip_country_code_by_addr($gi, $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
$visitor_country_name=geoip_country_name_by_addr($gi, $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
//This part shows banners/codes that YOU decide for each country
switch ($visitor_country_name) {
case "China": { ?>
[COLOR="Yellow"]<-- WHAT EVER CRAPPY BANNER YOU WANT TO SHOW FOR BELGIUM GOES HERE -->
[/COLOR]
<? }
break;
case "Taiwan": { ?>
[COLOR="yellow"]<-- WHAT EVER CRAPPY BANNER YOU WANT TO SHOW FOR TAIWAN GOES HERE -->
[/COLOR]
<? }
break;
[COLOR="DarkOrange"]// AND SO ON, YOU CAN ADD MORE COUNTRIES HERE JUST LIKE ABOVE[/COLOR]
default: { [COLOR="DarkOrange"]// THIS WILL EXECUTE FOR [B]ALL[/B] OTHER DESTINATIONS NOT MENTIONED ABOVE ?>[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Yellow"]<-- SEX SEARCH OR TCG BANNER SUITABLE FOR FOR OTHER DESTINATIONS -->[/COLOR]
