One of the most reliable approaches to limit the access to your site is to block the IP addresses of the people that mustn't be able to open it. There are numerous reasons to do this. For example, you may want a particular individual not to be able to see your website, or you can limit the access for an entire country. You may also block IP addresses if you detect that there are lots of browser requests from them, if a huge number of spam comments are left on your sites or if a script login page has been loaded numerous times. In each of these situations, the traffic is more than likely fake and has been generated by an automatic bot, so you could safely block any questionable IP address, to be on the safe side. In this way, you shall also prevent the possibility of your web server getting overloaded by too many fake requests.
