Analytics Dashboard - Visitors country without many API calls

I need some more information about how to create a SaaS analytics dashbord which is based on current user. The dashboard is for a marketplace which wants to show user based info (seller info).

I have all the info of an order (country, amount, etc.) but I now need to track visitor based information for non-loggedin users.

I wondered how to do it based on a sellers item pages without creating too many API calls. Getting visitor info as admin is easy but how to do it based on a seller and his items he sells on the marketplace.

Thank you!

Not sure if you're trying to be funny or just have a rough day. I thought Laracasts is a good place to get some more information and learn more about Laravel.

In the meantime I got an actual helpful response and it maybe helps others who want to learn more about Laravel:

Almost all packages for geoip/geocoding work with paid IP services. Some of them are quite high priced. Geocoder package is one of the better packags we ended up using.

Yeah I was trying to be funny so I don't insult you. The reason why nobody replied besides me is cause your description of a problem is very confusing and there is no real question there.

Ok, couldn't tell. I tried to explain it the best way I could at the moment but am still learning a lot.

Nobody is blaming you. It is just no useful and hard to figure out from given info. That is just another thing we need to master in order to communicate well with other developers.
