What about blacklisting Link Spammers together?
Link Spammers are getting more and more agressive these days and one shouldn’t ignore them. As I said before, I set up a small but effective system to blacklist IPs from accessing my pages and that works pretty well.
After more than ten days of active blacklisting, I have an interesting file to share, the Apache RewriteMap I use for listing unwanted IP adresses.
That file gets updated every day, with the new IP adresses that attacked my website.
This makes me wondering if we could set up a volatile package which would be dedicated to set up a webserver shield. It could just provide an httpd.conf configuration example (showing how to use the RewriteMap) and some maps (IP addresses, fake referers and user agents).
I might work on a prototype package and post again on that topic, stay tuned …
