Allow google/yahoo/bing/… bots?!

  • Hi poyagh,
    It’s not recommended to block United States as many servers originate from there, so search engines like Bing, Yahoo, and Google might not be able to index your website.
    Akismet and PayPal may be affected too in some cases, you may want to check “I want to block the US. Is this a good idea?” question on our Wiki.

    If this was -hopefully- just a one time attack, then I think you can unblock US for now, alternatively, you may need to check how bad is this attack “distributed”? maybe you can find an IP range that you can block via “Advanced Blocking” option.

    P.S. It’s always recommended to update Wordfence to the latest stable version.

    Keep me updated,
    Thanks.
