From time to time you might need to block particular third parties from accessing your Internet sites. There are plenty of automatic bots which crawl the Internet, for instance, and generate fake visits and site traffic. There are spammers that leave links to suspicious sites as comments to site articles. Such things could significantly undermine your hard work, as no one likes to visit an Internet site with countless fake comments, also the increased website traffic from both spammers and bots could generate high load on the web server on which your site is hosted, which could result in the site not functioning properly. Among the most effective solutions in such cases is to block the IPs which generate the fake traffic, as a way to ensure that the visits to your Internet site are legitimate.

IP Blocking in Shared Hosting

Our IP Blocking tool comes with the advanced Hepsia hosting CP, which comes with all shared hosting accounts. It shall allow you to block addresses with only several clicks. No coding skills are required, as you will use an intuitive interface - you need to simply select a domain or a subdomain from a drop-down menu and enter the IP address that you'd like to be blocked. You'll be able to see all the IP addresses that you've added inside the very same section and whitelisting any of them will take just a mouse click. If you notice your Internet site is being flooded by different IPs, you'll be able to block a whole IP range too. This can be performed by omitting the last number of the address. For instance, if you would like to block all 254 addresses from 1.1.1.1 to 1.1.1.255, you just need to type in 1.1.1. and leave the last spot blank .
