One of the most efficient approaches to limit the access to your website is to block the IP addresses of the individuals which mustn't be able to open it. There are numerous reasons why you should do that. As an example, you may want a specific person not to be able to see your Internet site, or you may restrict the access for a whole country. You may also block IP addresses in case you detect that there are lots of Internet browser requests from them, if a huge number of spam comments are left within your sites or if a script login page has been loaded numerous times. In any of these scenarios, the traffic is most likely fake and has been created by an automatic bot, so you can safely block any suspicious IP address, so as to be on the safe side. In this way, you will also stay away from the possibility of your server getting overloaded by too many fake requests.
