TrustpilotGeo-targeting is choosing where your proxy's exit IP is located, by country, state, city or network, so websites treat you as a local visitor and show the prices, search results and content people there see.
Websites locate visitors with IP geolocation databases, which map address ranges to places using registry records, routing data and measurements. A geo-targeted proxy hands you an exit IP whose database entry is in the place you asked for.
With a rotating pool, you usually pick the location by adding parameters to the proxy username, and the gateway draws an exit IP from the matching part of the pool. With static proxies, the location is fixed by the IP you receive.
Accuracy falls as the area gets smaller. Country data is highly reliable and state is usually right, but city can be off by tens of kilometres, because databases often place a range at the provider's routing point rather than at a street address.
Search engines, retailers, travel sites and ad networks localise what they show. Tracking rankings in a city, checking a product's regional price or confirming that an ad runs in the right market all need an IP in that place. See SEO and SERP tracking and price aggregation for typical setups.
Location is more than the IP. Match the browser's time zone and language to the target, and check the exit with an IP lookup before you trust the results.

Straight answers about Geo-targeting.
Country targeting is highly accurate. State and city depend on geolocation databases, which can disagree with each other and place an IP tens of kilometres away, so check the exit IP in more than one lookup.
