I want to directly geo-block some countries, without relying on Cloudflare CDN. I found IP2Location Country Database https://www.ip2location.com/database/db1-ip-country but its around $1000 a year. Are there any cheaper alternatives?

Both MaxMind & IQ Block work, but as I understand Cloudfare is the safest option. But here is IQ Block: https://wordpress.org/plugins/iq-block-country/

It's a WP plugin.
