Hi guys.

Hope all is grand with you.

Periodically I check my traffic via cPanel.

Gettings heaps of traffic from Russia.

Almost the same as local Australian traffic.

Is this something to worry about ?

Can you check to see where they are coming from (i.e. Google, etc.). Also check what ip they are coming from.



I am also in Australia but have only had three visits from Russia in the last few days so it does sound as though there is something funny going on with your site.

Spambots - Turn off “Send to a Friend” or limit to 1 comment per IP

We blocked off security risk countries that we dont ship to - Russia - Turkey -China



This was done directly at Firewall level



We can however whitelist an IP if we need to

Use this tool to block the whole country or countries:
