I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. I'm wondering if it is possible to block the entire state of Georgia from viewing my website. Is there a way to do this within the .htaccess file? Either by zip code, or IP address range?
I know it wont be 100% accurate, but it should do what I aiming for. Any feedback would be great.
Look into GeoIP services; IP addresses are not assigned by state, or even by country. It takes a huge and frequently-maintained database to even track to the country level -- something a single Webmaster simply cannot keep up with.
What is the security issue you are trying to address? I would be very careful with blocking entire regions based on IP. You never know what search bots, proxies or other items may reside in that area.
