BOT TRAFFIC ON MY SITE

theconductsoflife

I have been having bot traffic on my site from different countries and it's affecting my EPMV. I have reached out to my host and they asked me to reach out to Ezoic since my nameservers are not pointing to my Host.

I am afraid these are going to be seen as invalid traffic. It's quite difficult to get Ezoic staff to quickly look into this.

Please I need help.

theconductsoflife Hi,

I'm not seeing any invalid traffic on the site right now. Typically invalid traffic would send hundreds/thousands of visits to your site and that isn't something we've seen on your site.

You did mention a similar concern a few weeks back and we suggested, and still suggest, setting up some kind of invalid IP plugin, or blocking out suspicious IPs with the help of your host if this is a great concern to you. Overall though your traffic looks good and this isn't something to get too worried about

Thanks for responding Ethan. But these visitors are bad bots and they average 20 pageviews in 10 seconds. I am worried because Ezoic is recognizing the traffic and it affects my EPMV.
I have reached out to my host and their grouse is that my nameservers are pointing elsewhere. I have used many plugins that didn't do much.
But since you said it's not something I should worry about, let me relax.

To clarify, the previous comments were specific to your site at this point in time. That is not to say that invalid traffic could never become an issue in the future. That's not something we can predict.

If you haven't already, you'll want to review this guide:
