Every now and then you may need to block particular third parties from accessing your websites. There are a lot of automatic bots which crawl the Internet, for instance, and create fake visits and site traffic. There's also spammers that leave links to questionable sites as comments to website articles. This type of things may significantly undermine your projects, since nobody likes to visit a website with many fake comments, not to mention that the increased site traffic from both spammers and bots can generate high load on the web server where your website is hosted, which could result in your site not working correctly. One of the best solutions in cases like this is to block the IPs which create the fake traffic, as a way to make sure that the visits to your site are legitimate.

IP Blocking in Cloud Hosting

Our IP Blocking tool is included with the revolutionary Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with all cloud hosting accounts. It will enable you to block addresses with just several clicks. No coding skills are required, due to the fact that you shall use an intuitive interface - you just need to choose a domain or a subdomain from a drop-down menu and enter the IP address that you want to be blocked. You'll be able to see all the IP addresses you have added within the exact same section and whitelisting any of them shall take just a mouse click. If you notice that your site is being flooded by numerous IPs, you'll be able to block a whole IP range too. This can be done 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 have to type in 1.1.1. and leave the last spot blank .
