Hi guys,

I am getting some traffic from semalt and buttons-for-website and since it is messing up my analytics (higher bouncerates, etc) i want to block this traffic.

Anyone encountered this problem before and does someone have a solution?

Thanks in advance!

I am working on blocking these myself. I have found I can block them by adding the following to the end of my .htaccess

Code: Select all

SetEnvIfNoCase Referer semalt spammer=yes
SetEnvIfNoCase Referer buttons-for-website spammer=yes

Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Deny from env=spammer
