Blocking SumbleUpon




By mbritnry on Sep 28, 2008

Is there a way blocking traffic from SumbleUpon?

I'm getting plenty of traffic from StumbleUpon, but its not quality traffic and it's damaging my Adsense profits.

I don't have a StumbleUpon button on my site.

Please help.

based on this
http://www.whois.ws/whois-ip/74.201.117.232/

NetRange: 74.201.0.0 - 74.201.255.255
CIDR: 74.201.0.0/16

so you need to block those set of ip addresses via .htaccess.
once you do this other sites hosted on those ip address can't access your site.

if you have existing .htaccess file better download that your computer first then add the lines:

order allow,deny
deny from 74.201
allow from all

if not existing:
create a file .htaccess

the content of the .htaccess file is this:

order allow,deny
deny from 74.201
allow from all
