MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, Jun 10 (MARKET WIRE) --
Quova, Inc., the leading provider of IP geolocation data and services,
will exhibit at the 2009 Internet Retailer Conference and Exhibition,
June 15-18 in Boston. IREC is the world's largest e-retailing conference.
Location -- is one piece of data that can provide many uses for
e-retailers, including preventing online fraud, localizing Web content and
geotargeting advertising. By implementing IP geolocation technology into
their Web sites, retailers can identify a visitor's location from their
IP address, pinpointing the geographic area of the user down to a city
level. Once a visitor's location is known, retailers can take an action,
such as providing Web content in the right language and currency, or
blocking transactions from notoriously fraudulent countries such as
Nigeria.
Quova will be showcasing its IP geolocation capabilities in booth #1102 at
Internet Retailer.
Who: Quova staff members, including Kerry Langstaff, VP of Marketing at
Quova.
What: Quova will showcase its repository of more 2 billion IP addresses
and discuss the many ways IP geolocation can aid retailers.
Representatives from Quova can describe use cases from companies such as
the HP Home and Office Store and Continental Airlines.
When: June 15-18, 2009
Where: Boston Convention and Exhibit Center, Boston, MA; Booth #1102
