Client side Geo-coding --- process

[kShan]

We are using client-side Geocoding for our product which is going live in few weeks and I want to make sure that we won't run in to any query restrictions when we go live. Please review the below items and share your comments/thoughts. Thanks!

------Website will display list of hotels close to a user based on user's input address.
------We will be using client-side Geocoding. so when a user does a search for a hotel on the website, all requests will be counted against the user's IP address
Example: if there are say 3000 searches done in a second by 3000 different users, and if we use clientside geocoding then that 3000 requests will be counted against the client's IP addresses. Our hosting server will not hit any quota limitations

------We will be displaying the results in a map to meet Google's terms of Use
------On a separate page, when a user clicks on a hotel, we display the hotel's address as a marker in google Map. This is again client side geocoding.

Anything else we should be aware of? all answers/help greatly appreciated. Thanks!

That's right. Client services (such as geocoding) count against the client, not your server.
