Country Locking?

Post by silentwisher »

By chance do you guys know how to enable something that prevents users from visiting our site? Such as RU traffic.

So for example, if we want to block Russia and China from accessing the site, any ideas? I know places like Netflix have stuff like this.

Reason being is, we seem to get, more often than not, more negligent traffic from those 2 sources, than good.

Alright looks interesting, however support is requesting me to ask on the best method of setting it up. Im not sure how to set it up either.

Did you read the documentation? It is VERY simple and straight forward. Download the China and Russia blocks to block those domains. You will have to periodically update those blocks, like updating your antivirus. I would recommend the Korean blocks as well.

I did read the documentation...at least I think, their site layout/navigation is confusing. Im still not sure if im doing any of it right.
