I need to filter my traffic by country

    Does anyone know of some good ways to filter traffic by country?

    I can only monetize US, UK, and Canada traffic, but must send them to a different thing for each country.

    All other countries I would like to send somewhere else.

    Help is much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    PM ME or reply here

    Use Google Analytics. You won't even have to write any code.

    but with google analytics will it send people to the appropriate page they need to go to based on their counry?

    or just track the stats?

    cause i need people to go to 1 page for US 1 Page for UK 1 Page for Canada and 1 page for all else

    You would get better results by having defaulting the entrance page to the UK (I'm from the UK so :p) and then having a images of other a US flag, a Canadian flag and maybe something creative that represents everything else.

    IP pooling is never 100% accurate.
