## Опис

Installing **Analytics Spam Blocker** is almost a must-have for any WordPress or
ClassicPress website that collects visitor analytics with something like Matomo 
Analytics, Google Analytics or similar services. Accurate analytics are often a 
vital tool to track your website’s performance or just to see how many visitors 
you get.

Unfortunately there are lots of spambots from every shady corner of the internet
that bounce off your website and give you false records in your analytics – This
is called ‘referral spam’ or ‘referrer spam’.

**Analytics Spam Blocker** helps prevent this kind of spam from ever reaching your
website by blocking them at the server level leaving your analytics untouched.

With **Analytics Spam Blocker** you can easily add new domains that you find and
you’ll receive weekly updates in the background with new domains as well. Stop those
sites from affecting your website analytics today!

## Постављање

 1. Navigate to Plugins > Add New in your dashboard.
 2. Search for ‘Arnan’ in the plugin database and click install on the ‘Analytics Spam
    Blocker’ plugin.
 3. Once installed activate the plugin and you’re ready to go.
 4. Navigate to Tools > Analytics Spam Blocker in your dashboard to make reports.

## ЧПП

### How does this work?

Analytics Spam Blocker adds a list of domains to be blocked to your .htaccess file.
This list is regularly updated next to what you add yourself so you’ll be able to
filter out the majority of referrer spam very quickly.

### How does the list get updated?

Matomo Analytics publishes a list of domains to be blocked. Analytics Spam Blocker
downloads this list weekly and adds it to your blocklist.

### Who manages the blocklist updates?

In a way, you do. But the majority of domains are community managed and published
by Matomo Analytics through Github.

Wait for 7 days then check your Referrers for that time people. Spam will be gone
for that 7 days. This is to say the old bad Referrers don’t go away. But new ones
are blocked as they should be. EDIT*** Lowered my rating. Regardless of how good
or bad the plug-in may be, these developers insist on putting big beg notices on
the Admin page. This is a rookie marketing error on their part. I have deleted the
plug-in to get rid of their trash. Analytics Spam Blocker continued to beg for a
review (even though I reviewed it before), and this is it. I think your Admin page
noitces doom you to failure.

This works much better than trying to maintain and update my own filter list in 
Google Analytics.

There needs to be a way for users to add domains to the list of blocked domains.

### 󠀁[Great plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-18670/)󠁿

 [DawneR](https://profiles.wordpress.org/dawner/) 28. јул 2018.

This is a great plugin that has really helped me ensure that my GA stats are real.
I’ve recently started blogging, and I was really excited to see my pageviews go 
way up in one day, until I realized it was almost all fake. 🙁 As soon as I installed
Analytics Spam Blocker, my stats went back to normal. The plugin was easy to install
and I had no issues.

### 󠀁[Needs improvements](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/needs-improvements-4/)󠁿

Works fairly well, but it needs some improvements. Modern Referral spam bots often
use ‘look alike characters’ in domain names, characters from non-western alphabets
resembling western characters. The function to report a spam domain however tells
that the ‘domain name is not valid’. Like for example ḷ.com…
