Referrer SPAM Blocker

Referrer spam (traffic from bots that impersonate a referral link) is becoming a big problem. This kind of traffic is designed to make their domain show up in your site analytics so that you’ll visit their website. Most of them are Website Potential Crawlers, or Paid SEO Optimizers (like semalt). For those who don’t have access to their .htaccess file or don’t feel like they have the experience to properly edit it, this plugin will block them for you.

Features

  • For many webmasters, semalt is the worst offender. That's why semalt, and about 300 other spammer referrers are blocked by default.
  • Add, modify or delete any referrer-website in the Admin Panel in Magento.
  • Records a log file that shows you how many sites were blocked (/var/log/equity_referrerspamblocker.log)
