So i got a developer and building a cloaker and needed help with it. What are the things to keep in mind for doing it? How to get google ips and more.

This is a complicated process. You need to have a large database. This also requires a process. Maybe you can find someone selling it on the forum.

Yes. But just the IP database is not enough, there are many variables.

1. IP Blocking: check the visitor's IP address against various external bots lists hosted on GitHub. - https://github.com/AnTheMaker/GoodBots/tree/main/iplists , https://github.com/lord-alfred/ipranges
2. User-Agent Filtering: examine the user's browser user-agent string to detect bots, crawlers, and scrapers.
3. VPN & Country Restriction: determine if the visitor is using a VPN or if their country is not in the allowed list (US for example). If the IP is flagged as a VPN or comes from a restricted country, access is denied.
4. Blacklist Management: maintain a local blacklist and blocks any previously flagged IPs to avoid wasting api calls and fetching the github lists over and over again.
5. Visit Limit Enforcement: track visits per IP . If an IP exceeds five visits, it is blacklisted.
6. Redirection & Blog Page: If an IP is blocked, the user is redirected to a static blog page about a related article to your black page. Otherwise, they are redirected to your black page.
