1) Create a database page_visits table.
2) Use CodeIgniters incoming request class to get the users IP address.
3) Check database to see if the IP exists.
4) If the IP exists then increment counter and save to database

Something like this:

PHP Code:
        $ipTableModel = new App\Models\IpTableModel();
        $ip_address $this->request->getIPAddress();
        $countResult $ipTableModel->where('ip_address'$ip_address)
            ->countAllResults();
        if($countResult == 0){
            $ipTableModel->insert([
                'ip_address' => $ip_address,
                'visits' => 1
            
]);
        }else{
            $ipTableModel->where('ip_address'$ip_address)
                ->increment('visits');

I like to work with objects, but I think you wont have any problem using array.

the  code needs get user location  use _helper ci4 then call funtion in controller  all you need 
PHP Code:
function getCountryByIp($ip)

    {
        try {
            $xml file_get_contents(
                "http://www.geoplugin.net/json.gp?ip=" $ip);

        } catch (Exception $exception) {
            $xml null;

        }

        if (isset($xml)) {
            $ipdat = @json_decode($xml);
        } else {
            $xml null;
        }




        if ($xml != null and isset($ipdat->geoplugin_countryName)) {
            return array('country' => $ipdat->geoplugin_countryName,
                'code' => $ipdat->geoplugin_currencyCode,
                'city' => $ipdat->geoplugin_city,
                'lat' => $ipdat->geoplugin_latitude,
                'lang' => $ipdat->geoplugin_longitude'flag' => true);
        } else {
            return array('country' => '',
                'code' => '',
                'city' => '',
                'lat' => '',
                'lang' => '''flag' => false);

        }
