I recently had my hosting company move my site to a new server in preparation for running the GeoIP Apache API. If you are on a dedicated server, things are pretty straightforward. On a shared server, hosting companies get pretty cautious when you ask them to run a new API on that shared server. That's why my hosting comany moved me to a less populated server. Once the Apache API is running on my server, all I will have to do is upload a database file and add a few lines to a .htaccess file and I'm all set... no coding, no vbulleting hacks.... nothing. I won't even have to set up an sql database.
Even if you do block entire countries, you can still allow access from IP addresses that you specify even if they originate from a blocked country.

That's nice, but if you use shared hosting, the best is to use my code.
Btw, do you have any guide to make work that api?
