Hi,
I would like to implement your plugin to my search system. My question
is how do I implement it for Sweden?
First you need a file with domains and their locations, e.g.:
http://www.stockholm.com 62.123 15.123
...
I mean where do I get the
postioning code from?
There might be databases with ZIPs and their position.
For Germany we find them somewhere in the web.
Also is there any relation between GEOIP and GEO
Position?
What exactly do you mean with GEOIP?
Can I guess my client is comming from a postion X in Sweden
based on his IP address and serve the results that are near by him
(i.e. hotel close to his town) offcourse he probably is not searching
for hotel close to his town but just an example.
In Germany this would be very inaccurate.
This depends how IP addresses are distributed in Sweden.
The plugin is currently not ranking after the distance.
It also does not limit the results if you do not search with a position.
So you could change the code for ranking and/or limiting the results
according to geographic informations.
Matthias
