If you wish to block an IP Address from your website or blog, for whatever reason, here is how to Block IP Addresses Easily plus additional blocking tips you should know.

How to block ip address from website or Blog

1. Identify the IP Address You Wish to Block. If you aren’t sure go into your C Panel, go to Logs and then click either Last Visitors which will give you the last 300 visitors to your site or AWStats which is more extensive and has a longer list of visitors. I prefer using AWStats as I said its more extensive and breaks down IP addresses by hits, pages, bandwidth used and last visit. To use AWStats, once you click it on, scroll down to Hosts (Top 25). Then click full list.

2. Open up C Panel in another Window, leaving the Window with the IP Addresses unchanged. Go to Security and Click IP Deny Manager. Then simply put in the IP Address you wish blocked where it says IP Address or Domain. Simple as that. If you wish to unblock the IP Address just click Remove.

Additional Tips for Blocking IP Addresses

1. I recommend before you block an address, you research it first if applicable, by first putting the IP address in an IP Locator like Geobytes and then also do a Google Search on the IP Address which probably will lead to nothing but you never know. You may find out that you don’t want to block the address- for instance I found an IP address with a lot of bandwidth used was my sister! I’d recommend you use Stop Forum Spam where you just put an IP address in its Search Bar and you can see if others think its suspicious. If that’s the case then I block it

2. If the IP Address user changes their IP address and its still in the same IP Address range, this time block the entire range or Network. For instance Block the whole network by using .0.0 in last two octaves of the ip address, i.e. blocking 70.225.0.0 would block all IPs in the range from 70.225.1.1 to 70.225.254.254.

I hope this has been some help to you and you don’t have too many IP addresses you wish to block!
