Checking Geo Targeted content

[theshortstack]

Morning all,

I have sections on my site that display info based on the location of the user visiting the site.

Now my question is, how can I go about testing this? I'm based in the UK but want to check how my content is displaying for US, Canadian or Aussie visitors. Can anyone recommend a good proxy server or other piece of software that will do this for me? I guess ideally I'm looking for something free, but I don't mind paying something for it if it's worth it.

Thanks for the help!

Buy yourself a decent VPN subscription. I've found free proxies are generally unreliable and a PITA to use.
I like Witopia.net. From memory they cost less than $100 for a yearly subscription and have servers all over the world.

I use Britishtvanywhere.com

Also reliable and cheap

Hey Guys ! i use UK Proxy Server - UK VPN – you gotta pay a few bucks but its a real good service. PS you can even click on G banners of casino aff programs you don't love anymore - just a little fun !

Thanks for the quick feedback all. Just a couple of quick questions:

- Do all proxy servers charge on an annual basis rather than a one off fee?
- Do the UK/British products enable me to view websites from other countries such as the ones I mentioned above?

Cheers,

I use xhttp://www.vpnuk.info/. I pay monthly via paypal (about $10 US). Works well for me.

I know the one I mentioned has UK and U.S for sure and I know they added a lot of other countries but it doesn't look like they updated their site yet so I'm not sure which countries they now have in their portfolio. I think they have a 24 hour free trial though so you could use that to see. BTA has monthly/annual and a bunch of stuff inbetween
