Show HN: I Made a Ultra-Low Latency IP Geolocation API in Go(ipflare.io)
15 points by Lukem121 15 hours ago | 4 comments

Hey!

I'm a solo developer having fun learning Go. I have a side hustle and wanted to implement currency localization. I could use existing IP databases, but hosting on serverless is slow. So I built my own.

I was surprised how fun it can be to use Go, and it's fast. Thankfully, Go's speed makes up for my dodgy code.

Anyway, I'd love to get some feedback on my website/API. After a few weeks of testing and losing money on ads, I'm confident it's very reliable.

This isn't a promo. It's basicly free (30k lookups/month), so there's no need to pay.

Any advice or tips on how to grow and what you would do differently?

Thank you! That has been fixed.

What do you think would be considered a fast response time?

I like the initiative, hopefully your data quality will improve:

Country: NL | The Netherlands

European Union: false

Time Zone: Europe/Amsterdam

Calling Code: +0

Currency: Unknown

Dag from .de :)

Same thing with the European Union here, but got the Calling Code and Currency right.
