Have you had difficulties testing geo-location based ads? Or ever wanna know how your Site looks at a different geographical location? GeoScreenshot could be the tool for you. It is a developer friendly tool that will help you preview how your Web pages look like in multiple locations.
GeoScreenshot uses a cluster of headless browsers to capture pages & stream results into your browser. The tools cluster of servers will produce instant screenshots for you. In addition, GeoScreenshot uses the latest Website rendering engine which has WebFonts/CSS3 support.
Do you want to know if your Site displays different Content based on the visitor’s geolocation? Well with this tool, you will be able to test geo-targeted Content. Unlike with the use of proxy servers & VPNs, you will not get info from a false location.
With GeoScreenshot, you can also check for geographic consistency of your Site. When you use a Content Delivery Network (CDN), your files are distributed across a global network of edge servers. Therefore, GeoScreenshot will let you check if your CDN purges & changes have been replicated on all edges.
GeoScreenshot allows you to test for restrictions in some countries. Also, the tool enables localization testing for your website. Be it multilingual testing to verify that your website honors HTTP accept headers & respects or locale testing. The locale testing helps you check if your Site displays proper currency formats as well as date/time.
The tool saves your screenshots in PNG format & archive them in ‘My Account’ if you are a registered user. For an anonymous user, GeoScreenshot doesn’t save your images. The tool also limits the number of screenshots per user to prevent server overload. For example, an anonymous user has a limit of 50 screenshots per day & a total of 200 screenshots overall.
To use GeoScreenshot as an anonymous user, you just enter your Site’s URL. Then, select the location you want to view & click capture to get your screenshot. In addition to the location, you can choose the resolution you prefer & the user agent you want to display. e.g. Chrome or Firefox depending on your pricing plan.
GeoScreenshot was started in 2014. TE Web Solutions develops the tool. It is located in Sunnyvale, California, USA.
