# Geo Targeting

Geo targeting

It may be considered unusual for some local websites to receive worldwide traffic. Therefore, they can ban traffic from other countries. By using geotargeting, you can counter potential blocking.

Allows you to send requests through supported countries using geotargeting. In this way, you can more easily scrape the targeted website by focusing on a specific country.

All you have to do is send a request by selecting a country like `geoCode=us`
