How to block a specific or group of countries in Magento? So that I can easily analyze the actual traffic.

To get rid of annoying traffic you need to block those specific IP addresses or country from where your store receive the unwanted traffic.


I would recommend to use an Magento Country Blocker like the one developed by FME:

By using this extension, you can easily block specific IP address, IP range and different countries. The location of the incoming visitor is detected based on the IP address.
