How do I stop certain domains/countries from viewing my pages

[6foot4]

I have a list of some asian/russian countries and sites that just waste my BW... that I dont want linking to me or seeing my pages. How can I stop them from viewing my pages etc..

If they cannot signup with a CC.. then really I dont want them on my BW.


Can anyone help with that?

www.sexmoney.com has htaccess that you can put in place that redirects by country.

To expand on Cleo's response, you can just block out certain ip blocks in .htaccess or if you have your own box you can use iptables to just drop the packets.

Here is a snippet that I got from MrYellow of webpimps.com



Order allow,deny
allow from all
#Saudi
deny from 212.138.47.
deny from 212.138.64.
#unknown
deny from 203.149.16.
#Egypt
deny from 62.114.126.
#Chez
deny from 195.116.60.1
#UAE
deny from 195.229.241.

Stand outside your site and yell, "You can't come in here!"

That, or you can use htaccess as Cleo stated.

you can always damn specific domains referrals on your HTACCESS file
