How can I block the transition from sites to mine?

Question

Bots

Hello. I have been attacked by spam bots for a week and how else to call them (Bad traffic)
with.new.year.rf - sessions from it: 240
traffic2cash.xyz - sessions from it: 200
share-buttons.xyz - sessions from it: 80
site66912937.snip.tw - sessions from it: 26
site4866197.snip.tw - sessions from it: 17
site-69566523-1.snip.tw - sessions from it: 14
googlemare.com - sessions from it: 12
w3javascript.com - sessions from it: 9
The site is still 2 months old, as I understand it, the data for the transition is harmful
Help block their access to my site. I contacted the provider's support and they advised me to write the following in .htaccess:
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent Ahrefs bad_bot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent AhrefsBot bad_bot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent Spider bad_bot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent None bad_bot
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
Deny from env=
bad_bot

Answer 1

Hello. I have been attacked by spam bots for a week and how else to call them (Harmful traffic)

My site is also 2 months old, and the same nonsense, and from the very beginning.
Filtering such spam is tormented, so it's easier to score
Bots:
Ahrefs, etc. filter by the content of the User-Agent, other methods may not help.
---
In general, don't worry too much about these bots and spammers.
---
There are other types of bad traffic:
Metrics and direct hits with a high
bounce rate. And you should be periodically visited by "school hackers" with requests:
/wp-admin.php
/administrator.php
--- Seeing
all this mess, I came to the conclusion to score on all this, engage in the site, and the rest will resolve itself))) Which is what I advise you too :)

Answer 2

DNSBL check: in the list -> 403.
Make a white list of referral domains (there are not so many of them): otherwise -> 403
Also, you can check the PTR record.
The mechanics are comparable to the fight against email spam.

Answer 3

want advice? just promise that you will, because your question appears once a week.

Answer 4

happy.new.year.rf, traffic2cash.xyz and the like don't visit your site at all. They simply register their pseudo-visits in your analytics.
Therefore, you need to set up filters in your analytical reports, for example, this is how it is done in Google Analtics .

Answer 5

thanks for the replies folks, clarified. And then many people say they say, but they could not say what it is! THX

Answer 6

I had a similar problem, there were 300 visitors per day on the new site, 98% of bounces
helped to put a redirect in htaccess
