Let’s face it, if you use WordPress, your site gets attacked constantly. Although WordPress is hugely popular, it leaves quite a lot to be desired in terms of security. Plugins like Wordfence and iThemes Security go a long way to protecting your website.
But what if you could stop your attackers before they even banged on your door? This is where the Login IP & Country Restriction plugin shines! This plugin provides a slick and easy interface to protect your website. Any and all login attempts that don’t originate in the white-listed countries or IP addresses are blocked or can be optionally redirected elsewhere.

Login IP & Country Restriction provides the option of locking down access by the selected country or countries. You can take this further by granting access to specific IP addresses. If you have a static IP address assigned to you by your ISP, feel free to use this option, but if not you can risk locking yourself out as your public IP address can change over time.
After installing this free plugin, I watched intrusions attempts went from thousands per day to almost zero on many websites! So go ahead, give your website some much needed protection. You won’t regret it.
