Geo-Targeting by Country
Geo-targeting allows you to route traffic to different destinations based on visitor location.
How Geo-Targeting Works
ClickerVolt detects each visitor country from their IP address and routes them according to your geo-targeting rules.
Two Levels of Geo-Filtering
Link-Level Geo Filter
Applied to the entire link. Only visitors from selected countries can access the link. Visitors from non-selected countries are redirected to your fallback URL if configured, otherwise they see a 404 "Link not found" error.
Target-Level Geo Filter
Applied to individual targets within the same link. Target-level filters must be a subset of the link-level filters.
Example: If your link allows US and Canada, a target can filter for US only, Canada only, or both - but not France, since French visitors are already filtered at the link level.
Setting Up Link-Level Geo Filtering
Open the link edit form
Find the "Geo Filter" section
Select countries to allow
Save the link
Visitors from non-selected countries will be redirected to your fallback URL if configured. If no fallback URL is set, they will see a 404 "Link not found" error.
Setting Up Target-Level Geo Filtering
Edit a target within your link
Find the "Geo Filter" section
Select countries for this target
Save the target
ClickerVolt will only consider this target for visitors from the selected countries.
Common Geo-Targeting Patterns
Country-Specific Offers
Target A: US-only offer (geo-filter: United States)
Target B: UK-only offer (geo-filter: United Kingdom)
Target C: International offer (no geo-filter)
Regional Pricing
Target A: Premium pricing (US, UK, Canada, Australia)
Target B: Standard pricing (Europe)
Target C: Economy pricing (Rest of world)
Language-Specific Pages
Target A: English page (US, UK, Canada, Australia)
Target B: Spanish page (Spain, Mexico, Argentina)
Target C: French page (France, Canada)
Best Practices
Always Set a Fallback
Configure a fallback URL for visitors from countries not covered by your geo-filters.
Test Your Geo-Filters
Use a VPN or proxy to test that visitors from different countries see the correct targets.
Don't Over-Segment
Too many country-specific targets can fragment your traffic and make analysis harder. Group similar countries when possible.
Advanced Topics
Geo-Targeting and Rotation Algorithms
Geo-filtering happens before rotation algorithms. Only eligible targets (matching visitor country) enter the rotation.
Country Detection Accuracy
ClickerVolt uses IP geolocation databases for country detection. Accuracy is typically 95-99% at the country level.
VPN and Proxy Users
Visitors using VPNs or proxies will be detected based on their VPN/proxy location, not their actual location. This is unavoidable with IP-based geo-targeting.
