I want to know how big tech companies detect website visitors locations?  
From Which side they have implemented ? Frontend or backend ?  
Is there any tool or some bunch of code ?

If anybody knows please describe yourself.🙏

I have to implement in project.

Your answer is very important for me.

You can use user’s IP to detect their location, it’s not a exactly location but you may know which city.

Dear [Mustafa\_Kapur](https://onehack.st/u/Mustafa_Kapur)

See this site [Geo Location API](https://ipstack.com). Use ajax method. I hope this will help you.

@Mustafa_Kapur you can ofc use backend code to detect the IP and using it you can get all other information ( i wouldn’t suggest using any frontend in this cuz users can play as they want in fronted and you should never trust them, the backend is guaranteed, I would give you PHP code or nodeJS code, but I’m not sure you’re a programmer or you just want a small solution )  
anyway, you can still use this [https://ipstack.com/](https://ipstack.com/) as @prabha_coder but I wouldn’t trust in javascript cuz users can disable it …  
you’re better to use cURL in PHP, they have a full step by step documentation over [https://ipstack.com/documentation](https://ipstack.com/documentation)
