In case you notice a big increase in the traffic to your website and if after you look into the visitor statistics it turns out that it comes from places around the world or from other servers, your site is more than likely being attacked by an automatic bot. These programs go through random websites trying to log in to their admin area through a brute-force attack or to leave spam comments below every article where this sort of an option is provided. Unfortunately, that's something quite popular lately, but if you know the IP addresses from which the attacks come, you can block them, so the bots won't be able to access your site in any way. Naturally, you'll be able to block IPs even if you allow only people from certain countries to access your Internet site.

IP Blocking in Cloud Website Hosting

Our IP Blocking tool is included with the ground breaking Hepsia hosting CP, offered with all cloud website hosting accounts. It will permit you to block addresses with just a few mouse clicks. No coding abilities are needed, because you will use an intuitive interface - you simply need to choose a domain or a subdomain from a drop-down menu and type in the IP address that you would like to be blocked. You will be able to see all the IP addresses that you have added within the exact same section and whitelisting any of them will take only a mouse click. If you notice your site is being flooded by numerous IPs, you'll be able to block a whole IP range also. This may be completed by omitting the last number of the address. For example, if you wish to block all 254 addresses from 1.1.1.1 to 1.1.1.255, you only need to enter 1.1.1. and leave the last spot blank .
