I recently wrote a large article on IP geolocation and it turns out that the main source for IP geolocation is still WHOIS data: https://ipapi.is/geolocation.html

There are tools such as https://ipapi.is/ that can be used to geolocate any IPv4 and IPv6 address in the world. Sometimes those tools are not extremely accurate, but usually they are accurate to the city level.

the last one is not vague, it is clearly a hosting provider: https://www.instagram.com/atomohost/?hl=en But I picked just one faulty classification of ipinfo.io, that's not fair, I know. I only wanted to point out

In general ipinfo.io has the best data and the best product out there in the IP API niche. It is what it is. Your data is the most accurate and most updated. Hosting detection is a finite process, meaning that there is a finite amount of ho

In case anyone needs a all around good IP api with excellent threat intelligence that is not that expensive as IPinfo is, I suggest to use https://ipapi.is/ https://ipapi.is/ is not as good in regards to ge

Another alternative to obtain WHOIS data over an free API would be https://ipapi.is/

Big fan of what articles? On https://incolumitas.com/ or on https://ipapi.is/ ? Great idea with latency triangulation, I used latency information for a lot of things, especially VPN and Proxy detection. But

Many service providers actually want their clients to be able to locate them.

I have to scrape the whole IP address space since I offer location information as part of my API. Also I only need to scrape as many WHOIS records as there are different networks out there. So for example for the IPv4 address space, there a
