Great app, works as described and blocks everything I asked it to block. Will keep prying eyes away from your site. Super easy to set up and it just runs. You don't really need to do anything, but check back every once in a while to see how many bad guys are trying to get into your site, and see them all on the blocked list. This app works super well, highly recommended. And, their support team is awesome, I just sent them a chat question and they replied in like 30 seconds and addressed my issue. All good. 5 stars.

Wonderful app. Love the fact that I am able to block IP address instantly. Country blocks is amazing because it doesn’t matter if they are trying to access my site from my social media platforms or google. I would highly recommend this app.

I started noticing a lot of traffic from China and decided to do something, I found this app to help with the issue and not that all traffic is bad from China I just want to have some kind of security for those that are lurking to do harm. So far the app is doing a great job!!!

Thank you
