Public IP lookup tools may take<b> up to<\/b> <b>two months<\/b> to update their databases with correct information. Therefore, there&rsquo;s a delay, which causes you to see the incorrect IP location. <\/p><p class=\"no-margin\">\n<\/p><p class=\"no-margin\">The frequency on which such data is updated varies depending on the tool. We recommend you <b>check different public databases<\/b> in order to get accurate information about the IP location of your Hostinger services.
