From time to time you may have to block certain third parties from accessing your sites. There are plenty of automatic bots that crawl the Internet, for example, and create fake visits and site traffic. There are also spammers that leave links to suspicious websites as comments to site articles. Such things could drastically undermine your work, as nobody likes to visit a website with many hundreds of fake comments, not to mention that the increased site traffic from both spammers and bots can create high load on the server in which your site is hosted, that can result in your site not working correctly. One of the best solutions in this case is to block the IPs that create the fake traffic, in order to ensure that the visits to your website are real.

Once you log in and navigate to the IP blocking section, you shall just have to choose a domain or a subdomain hosted in the account and enter the IP address which needs to be blocked. Our system enables you to block whole networks also, so if you input 123.123.123., for example, this shall block all IP addresses between 123.123.123.1 and 123.123.123.255 from accessing your websites. If you want to whitelist an IP at some point, you'll be able to unblock it with simply a click from the same section.
