How to block visitors by country?
By default, a website is accessible globally, but this may not always be desirable. For instance, you may want to restrict access to certain countries if the content is not relevant or manage your website traffic more effectively. An example of this could be hosting a local competition or contest and only allowing visitors from your own country to participate.
To block visitors from specific countries to your website, you need to have a GeoDNS subscription and follow these steps:
Go to your GeoDNS zone.
In the control panel, create a new A record.
In the record settings, specify the following:
Record Type: A
Location: Select the country you want to block visitors from
TTL: 1 Hour
Host:
Points to: 127.0.0.1
