How to redirect Site for specific country users?

Question

I have a same website in two different languages, with two different domains, one in English and other in Turkish.

Whenever someone accesses my website (www.example.com) I want to redirect that user to www.example.tr if he is accessing that site from TURKEY else to .com if he is accesing my website other that TURKEY

Q: How do i achieve that in asp.net?

Q: What are the options available to achieve this?

Q: Do i have to make changes to IIS or in my CODE?

Maybe this helps:https://www.jerriepelser.com/blog/aspnetcore-geo-location-from-ip-address/ — WhoMightThisOneBe, Nov 02 '18 at 06:29
no - you can not just do it on IIS, except if you find some kind of extension - search on google to see if anyone exist - To know the country of your user and act, you need to programming.... — Aristos, Nov 02 '18 at 08:53

You can use ip geolocation service like "ipstack.com" to find the location of the visitor: ipstack.com example for the Standard Lookup Endpoint using jQuery.ajax. (First register in free Plan and get your API Access Key)

// set endpoint and your access key
var ip = '134.201.250.155'
var access_key = 'YOUR_ACCESS_KEY';

// get the API result via jQuery.ajax
$.ajax({
    url: 'https://api.ipstack.com/' + ip + '?access_key=' + access_key,   
    dataType: 'jsonp',
    success: function(json) {

        // output the "capital" object inside "location"
        alert(json.location.capital);

    }
});

Now based on the answer you received, you can redirect the user to the website you want without any change in IIS.

if (countryCode == "Turkey")
  response.redirect("www.yoursite.tr");
else
  response.redirect("www.yoursite.com");

This is javascript code, the question is on asp.net, and not include javascript tags... – Aristos Nov 02 '18 at 08:55
It's example from ipstack.com documentation. You can use this with HttpClient in asp.net. – Shahram Vafadar Nov 03 '18 at 09:41
Only if has tag it with javascript... now is ask for asp.net solution – Aristos Nov 04 '18 at 19:38
It is important to show the way. – Shahram Vafadar Nov 05 '18 at 11:49
This is not the way - you show on a different language how you use a library. I vote to delete it ! – Aristos Nov 06 '18 at 15:36
I introduced a service in the first section and part of the documentation. The second section is actually a c#. – Shahram Vafadar Nov 07 '18 at 23:54
