For the redirect to work fast (before the page loads you need to place it in the head. We alway recommend to place a zone in the head, right under <head> so that for any reason in the future you do not need to add any more code to your site that you not already have,

Step 1: place zone in the head

make a new zone and past the code in the between <head> and </head>

Step 2: create inventory in reedge

Create a inventory item that says:

<HEAD>
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript">
<!--
window.location="http://someplace.com.mx";
//-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>

Step 3: create an action

You can make a segment is your going to use it more often, otherwise just make a action directly.

We want to redirect all Mexican users by default to our Mexican site. So we call the 'entity: country' and make sure it equals 'Mexico'. That way all visitors from Mexico are not going to http://someplace.com but to http://someplace.com.mx.

Note

We recommend to do this only once per session, some visitors really want your US site.
