    Trade management by Country? (for linux/apache)

    spent the last several hours looking for IP by country db that will integrate with linux/apache. found some stuff, but unsure if it's any good.

    Do you do that? What works well?

    Seems a big problem would be the time delay between the hit and serving the page if you have a large db. All the country db are huge.

    Would prefer to have a trade management script that trades country for country. (Ie, you send me a chinese surfer, I send you a chinese surfer.)

    It would be fine if it just grouped the worthless traffic together: china, singapore, russia, etc.

      ps, an apache module for this is here:
      http://www.maxmind.com/app/mod_geoip

      Any comments on how this might work? Drawbacks? Speed?

              Why is traffic from places like China, Singapore and Russia considered "worthless"? Pardon my ignorance - newbie.

                  It's hard to get money out of Chinese surfers. They don't have credit cards, and it's illegal.

                  Other countries are just plain full of fraud artists. Russia, Ukrain, etc.
