Hi everyone, I'm completely new to this and trying to improve my "What is My Country?" web tool.

I'm struggling with consistently accurate user geolocation; sometimes it's way off, especially for mobile users or those behind VPNs.

For example, using a basic IP lookup often gives me results like this:

// Example Console Output
User IP: 192.168.1.1 (private/proxy)
Detected Country: 'Unknown' or 'ISP Data Center'
Expected Country: 'Germany'

What are the best practices or common services for reliable IP-based country detection?
