Determination method and device for IP address area

The embodiment of the invention discloses a determination method and device for IP address area. The determination method comprises the following steps: acquiring an account number set formed by account numbers logging in an application server through an IP address and logging in the application server through positioning terminals, and determining the positions of the positioning terminals corresponding to all the account numbers in the account number set; and statistically calculating to determine the areas where all the positioning terminals are positioned according to the positions of the determined positioning terminals, and obtaining the target IP address area according to the areas of the positioning terminal. Through the adoption of the invention, the high-precision IP address area is determined as required, and information of the area where the user is located is conveniently pushed to the user according to the IP address more precisely when applications such as message pushing are executed subsequently.
