sending all non-English language traffic out

[Loraine]

Is there a way to send all my non-English language traffic out to one site and the English language traffic to another?

Trade it out if you can not convert it,what i do.

That is a waste of traffic, my 2 cents. Monetize it to paysites.

Or even better to a webcams site you promote

We use maxmind.com to block individual countries but Im not sure it can do a straight English/Non-English comparison ?

You would have to go through each ISO country code and decide if they speak English and then include the ones you want to re-direct in your javascript like this :-

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript" src="//js.maxmind.com/js/apis/geoip2/v2.1/geoip2.js"></script>
<script>

var redirect = (function () {
    /* This implements the actual redirection. */
    var redirectBrowser = function () {
         window.location = "https://www.mydomain.com";
    			};

    /* These are the country codes for the countries we have sites for.
     * We will check to see if a visitor is coming from one of these countries.
     * If they are, we redirect them to the country-specific site. If not, we
     * redirect them to world.example.com */
    var sites = {
        "de": true,
        "in": true,
        "it": true,
        "pl": true,
        "gb": false,
        "us": false
    };


    var onSuccess = function (geoipResponse) {
        /* There's no guarantee that a successful response object
         * has any particular property, so we need to code defensively. */
        if (!geoipResponse.country.iso_code) {
            return;
        }

        /* ISO country codes are in upper case. */
        var code = geoipResponse.country.iso_code.toLowerCase();

        if ( sites[code] ) {
            redirectBrowser();
        }
        
    };

    /* We don't really care what the error is, we'll send them
     * to the default site. */
    var onError = function (error) {
        return;
    };

    return function () {
        geoip2.country( onSuccess, onError );
    };
}());

redirect();

</script>

you should be able to do that with htaccess

This should redirect any non english to another url. english traffic falls through to regular site

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} !en [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://nonenglishtrafficgoeshere.com/$1 [L,R=301]

something like that.

Caveat: I am not an htaccess expert by any means
