Using geoip in .htaccess files / banning IP based on geographic region

Question

I was wondering if you have any support for banning specific countries, such as geoip?

Answer

We do not support geoip by default due to the extra load it would add to every page request.

However you can use it or any other geographic based IP bans in your .htaccess files. Any tutorial for doing so should work fine on your account with us.

You can also upgrade to a Virtual Private Server (VPS) and install geoip support to the webserver on the VPS.
