Use this feature to open or close your website. Note: If your website is 'Closed' it will Remain Open for IPs listed in the 'Remain Open for IPs' list.

Manage up to 10 websites. Use the drop-down menu on the IP Address Editor page to Edit the IP Addresses or Add a Site. Note that each site has its own Javascript Code.

Authorized Domain: To protect you, and your account, IP Address Approval only allows Apps/Plugins that use an Authorized Domain URL. Your App/Plugin must be on an Authorized Domain in order to work. Enter your website's URL (the domain name, like: example.com), and the click 'Save' button.

If you choose to have your website closed, you can allow your website to remain open for the IP addresses listed here.

Note: You can use a single IP Address, use an IP Range or **Geo Location. (See Below)

Also Note: If you have China blocked, using 'China' in the Banned List, but you have a friend in China that you would like to allow on your website. Simply add their IP Address to the Allowed list and they will not be Banned.

Whether your website is opened or closed, you can block specific IP addresses by adding them to the Banned IPs box.

Note: You can use a single IP Address, use an IP Range or **Geo Location. (See Below)

Use a single IP or use IP Ranges:
1. Wildcard:   1.2.3.*
2. CIDR:          1.2.3.0/24 OR 1.2.3/24
3. Start-End:  1.2.3.0-1.2.3.255

You can add notes by adding // after the IP addresses. Example:
255.255.255.0 //add notes here

Restrict Access by Geo Location:
You can restrict access to your site by using any of the following:
City, Zip-Code, State/Region, State/Region Code, Country, Country Code(2 or 3 letter), ISP, Organization, Provider Number/Name or even Time Zone.
You can also use logical combinations, example:

The Access Denied Page allows you to select where you would like the people to be directed to, who are denied access to your website.

If you use the default Access Denied page, make sure you have a page titled "Access Denied". The URL of the page you create should look like this: /access-denied.html

The Banned IPs Page allows you to redirect visitors who have been banned from your website.

If you use the default Banned page, make sure you have a page titled "Banned". The URL of the page you create should look like this: /banned.html

You can toggle 'on' to block Proxy, VPN or Tor visitor connections. These visitors will then be redirected to the Proxy, VPN or Tor page.

The Proxy, VPN or Tor Page allows you to redirect visitors who visit your website using Proxy, VPN or Tor connections.

The default is /banned.html but you may want to use a page specifically for Proxy, VPN or Tor connections to let those visitors know they need to disable that to view the site. The URL of the page you create should look like this: /vpn.html

You can toggle 'on' to block Hosting or Data Center visitor connections. These visitors will then be redirected to the Hosting or Data Center page.

The Hosting or Data Center Page allows you to redirect visitors who visit your website using Hosting or Data Center connections.

The default is /banned.html but you may want to use a page specifically for Hosting or Data Center connections to let those visitors know they need to disable that to view the site. The URL of the page you create should look like this: /hosting.html

Allow or Block Bots

Use the following to Allow or Block Bots, or in the Do Not Log List:
AhrefsBot
AppleBot
BingBot
FacebookBot
FreshpingBot
GoogleBot
PinterestBot
SemrushBot
TwitterBot
UptimeRobot
YandexBot

This feature would mainly be used when you close your website or when you or block Hosting or Data Center connections but you want to these bots to access your website (such as for search result indexing).

The Do Not Log List is a way for you to exclude visits from being logged in the Visitor Log. This works in the same way as the 'remain open for' and 'banned list' work but is for whether or not to log the visit. You can use IP Addresses, IP Ranges, Geo Locations or Bots in this list.

For testing purposes we have included a Test Page. For example, if your website is closed and your IP address is not allowed you will be redirected to the Access Denied Page.

If you are not able to use PHP on your site, and are not able to Host this yourself, you can use the JavaScript Embeddable Code.

If you are able to use PHP code, and you are hosting this on your own server, simply add the PHP code to the top of your pages. PHP Install Instructions
