Why are visitors to my site coming from London (or another big city)?

Many people use a Virtual Private Network or VPN when they connect their device to the Internet. 


A VPN is a secure connection between a device (mobile phone, tablet, laptop or other computer) and the internet.

VPNs hide your location and protect you from online snooping.


If a lot of visitors to oyur website appear to be coming from Edinburgh or London or some other large city it is probably because their location is being hidden and reported as a large city by their VPN.
