What to do if the IP location of your Hostinger services is incorrect

Learn why you may see the incorrect IP location of your Hostinger services

Updated 3 weeks ago

You may sometimes see the inaccurate location of the IP address assigned to your Hostinger services upon checking it in public IP lookup databases.

Why this happens

Be assured that our engineers closely monitor and ensure that correct geolocation data is always served through a geofeed.

A geofeed, or geolocation feed, is basically a list of IP addresses and their locations. You may find Hostinger geofeed in GitHub.

However, due to the nature of public IP databases, this data is usually not updated in real time. Public IP lookup tools may take up to two months to update their databases with correct information. Therefore, there’s a delay, which causes you to see the incorrect IP location.

Check different lookup tools

The frequency on which such data is updated varies depending on the tool. We recommend you check different public databases in order to get accurate information about the IP location of your Hostinger services. For instance:

If you want to confirm your actual assigned IP directly rather than relying on third-party lookups, see where to find the A record of your hosting plan at Hostinger.

To sum up, if you see an incorrect IP location of your Hostinger services, no action is required — only give the IP lookup databases some time to update this information on their end.
