The simplest way to redirect users based on geolocation on WordPress

Check out features

Geo Redirects lets you redirect users to different parts of your site or another website based on their geolocation. You can also factor in other conditions such as a user's logged-in status, device, referring URL, and more. No coding required!

Quickly Create Your Own Geo Redirect Rules

Geo Redirects makes it easy to create your first redirect in just a few minutes:

  • Choose your redirection rule(s) - you can combine targeting specific geolocations with other rules like a user's logged-in status, their device, referring URLs, and lots more.
  • Enter your destination URL - you can redirect visitors to a static internal or external link. Or, you can add placeholders to create dynamic destination URLs.
  • Customize your redirect - you can only redirect visitors one time per session, use different redirect codes, whitelist IP addresses, and more.

Create Unlimited Redirects

Geo Redirects lets you create unlimited redirect rules. You can also easily activate/deactivate rules as needed.

Detect Users' Real Locations No Matter What

Geo Redirects is built to detect users' actual locations no matter what. Even if you're using Cloudflare, Sucuri, Akamai, or other similar tools, Geo Redirects can still detect a user's real IP address and location. For mobile users, Geo Redirects can also detect GPS location for even more pinpoint accuracy.

Mix-and-Match Rules As Needed

You can mix-and-match all of the redirect conditions as needed. You can use both AND rules (all conditions must be met) and OR rules (only one condition/group of conditions needs to be met).

Use Include/Exclude Rules for Pinpoint Targeting

Geo Redirects lets you harness geolocation in both directions with both include and exclude rules. That is, you can redirect all users in a specific area or you can redirect the entire world except for visitors in that specific area.

Create Dynamic Destination URLs With Placeholders

Geo Redirects lets you redirect users to a static internal or external destination URL. Or, for more flexibility, you can also use placeholders in your redirects to create dynamic destination URLs based on a visitor's language-code or requested URL.

FAQ

Can I create dynamic destination URLs?

Yes! Geo Redirects gives you five placeholders that you can include to create dynamic destination URLs based on a visitor's location or the content that they requested:

  • {{country_code}} Two letter iso code
  • {{state_code}} Two letter state code
  • {{zip}} Zip code
  • {{requested_uri}} Original requested url. Eg: http://geotargetingwp.com/geo-redirects
  • {{requested_path}} Original requested path. Eg: geo-redirects
  • {{last_path}} Last path in url. Eg: http://geotargetingwp.com/geo-redirects/redirect1 => redirect1
Will Geo Redirects work with my caching plugin?

Yes! Geo Redirects is compatible with WordPress caching plugins or server-level caching from your host.

However, some of the individual non-geo rules will not work with page caching - these are marked with an asterisk in the interface. The geotargeting rules themselves are compatible with caching, though.

Will Geo Redirects affect SEO?

No, Geo Redirects will not negatively affect your SEO efforts. In fact, Geo Redirects gives you the option to exclude crawlers (like Google) from redirects if you'd prefer.

Can I redirect to the same page in a different language?

Yes! First, Geo Redirects lets you automatically insert the two-letter language code of a visitor's location in the redirect structure. You can read this guide to learn more.

Second, Geo Redirects also integrates with WPML slug translation. So if you're using WPML, you can automatically redirect to pages with the translated URL slug.

Does every redirect count as a request (for billing)?

Not necessarily - Geo Redirects evaluates the geo rules at the end. So if a user has already been rejected by a redirect condition that doesn't involve geotargeting rules, they would not count as a request.

For example, let's say you have two redirect conditions that must be met:

  • The user is logged in
  • The user is located in Germany

If a visitor is not logged in, that would not count as a request because that visitor already failed the first condition (logged-in status) so there's no need to use the geo rule.
