If you're looking for a geo redirect / geo location solution then we have one with affkit inside The Dojo here.

I haven't used it in a long time but on mobile traffic it was it not giving the correct location of the visitor.
This:
<script src="http://j.maxmind.com/app/geoip.js"></script>
Your city is: <script language="JavaScript">document.write(geoip_city());</script>
doesn't work anymore since yesterday.
They have another free option which it might work but I must download their database and do some setups on my server. This was the easy way to work with geoip location

I asked a few of my friends from different locations to test the service on mobile and desktop before implementing on AffKit and it gave very good results. I can't say for sure how will work for everyone but seems that's more accurate than maxmind. The feedback from AffKit users will tell in the end.
