About

freegeoip.net is a public web service for searching geolocation of IP addresses and host names.

The system has an internal database with geolocation information, which is queried via the web service. There's no magic or tricky calculations, it's just a database. And although the database is very accurate, don't expect it to be perfect.

This service includes GeoLite data created by MaxMind, available from maxmind.com.

Usage for developers

Make HTTP GET requests to http://freegeoip.net/{format}/{ip_or_hostname}

Supported formats are csv, xml or json.

The ip_or_hostname part is optional. Your own IP is searched if one is not provided.

Limits

Due to the high volume of queries we've implemented a throttling mechanism, which allows at most 10,000 queries per hour. After reaching this hourly quota, all your requests result in HTTP 403 (Forbidden) until it clears up on the next roll over.

There's absolutely no plans of selling services here. If this limit is a problem for you, please consider running your very own instance of this system. It's open source and freely available at GitHub.
