Redirecting Foreign traffic with htaccess? - GoFuckYourself.com

How?

Hardcore J · 11-15-2003, 01:00 AM

For Stupid Cash my programmers implemented a geo tracking function which redirects traffic that can't be processed by Epoch (primary processor).

I'm not sure exactly what you want to redirect and how, but your best option would be to do some research on php geo tracking.

This example will redirect NON-english browsers:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} ^!(en)
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.somedomain.com/ [L]

This example will redirect spanish browsers (and you can do it for multiple languages with extra lines and an [OR] on all but the last Cond line):
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} !(es)
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.somedomain.com/ [L]

But language redirection is very inaccurate. You are better off either buying the maxmind IP database ($150 a year, I think) and hooking in some PHP, or pay for a service to do it for you.

install mod_geo( I think that was the name ) in apache and then you can use .htaccess to redirect'em...

I redirect all mine based on religion. It really helps conversions

Smokey The Bear · 11-15-2003, 02:40 AM

hahahahahahahaha LANGUAGE="smokeyScript1.2">

</hahahahahahahaha

php type

<?
$user_lan = $HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE;

if($user_lanhahahaha'de') {
## German
$redir_url = "http://www.germanlanguagepageurl.com";

} elseif($user_lanhahahaha'fr') {
## French
$redir_url = "http://www.frenchlanguagepageurl.com";

} elseif($user_lanhahahaha'it') {
## Italian
$redir_url = "http://www.italianlanguagepageurl.com";

} elseif($user_lanhahahaha'es') {
## Spain
$redir_url = "http://www.spanishlanguagepageurl.com";

## US traffic or Rest of world not defined above
} else {
$redir_url = "http://www.yourmainpageurl.com";

}

header("Location: $redir_url");
exit;

?>

heres a simple language script redirect

Your gonna have to edit that as you see fit , and add more languages , and you might want to add the different versions of english as well to filter it even further.

Yes they do, as explained it goes by language settings not country.

Use the list provided above to add additional languages.

I looked into this and decided that htaccess is not adaquate. Too many IPs to list, too slow to process the list.

You want a system that uses "converted" IP numbers. Ie, you convert xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx into a simple number, like 153,996,773. Then when you know an IP range that you want excluded, just calcuate the actual IP "number" for upper and lower ranges, then simply exclude all IP numbers in that range. Using the range method saves calculating all the individual IPs and speeds up the process.

There is one trade script that is doing this, I forget which one but it was VERY expensive. Other trade scripts will soon have similar features I'm sure. Just hang on a few months they'll be everywhere.
