From time to time you may need to block certain third parties from accessing your websites. There are a lot of automatic bots which crawl the Internet, for example, and create fake visits and website traffic. There are spammers that leave links to suspicious websites as comments to website articles. This kind of things could drastically undermine your work, simply because nobody likes to visit an Internet site with many fake comments, furthermore the increased site traffic from both spammers and bots can create high load on the web server in which your Internet site is hosted, which may result in the site not working properly. One of the best solutions in such a case is to block the IP addresses which create the fake traffic, in order to be certain that the visits to your website are authentic.
