Blocking 3rd world traffic
 
Hey everyone, lately I have been wondering if it is a good idea to block traffic from countries like India and Africa. I have had no conversions on my website and I need to preserve the bandwidth as much as possible as I am on a very tight budget.

Do you think it would be a wise business decision to block traffic from certain countries an only leave the website open to Australia, USA, Canada & UK?

If so, how would I go about doing this? I am pretty keen to block the people that are just using my tube for a free wank.

$00 from nowhere (or everywhere). The site has only just started to get traffic. For the last year I have barely added videos and promoted it. I have not paid for any traffic yet.

How do other people think these countries convert? I am just reaching my max bandwidth and I can't afford to pay for more without any conversions. So if I can build traffic up from countries that convert and get some sales, then I can afford to pay for some more bandwidth.

I am struggling for $$ at the moment and I don't want to have to lose my website, so if I can cut costs then I will be happy.

option 1 sell it to a broker like plugrush
option 2 redirect it a sponsor like crakrevenue that accepts a lot of different traffic

Or just block it at the server level.

Try to sell first but dont expect to make much from it.

It's a perfectly legit question. If he's getting overage charges on bandwidth, blocking traffic that is impossible to convert is a perfectly acceptable solution. I have more bandwidth than I can use right now so I don't mind subsidizing 3rd world shithole countries with free porn.

I believe the sarcasm is because he called Africa a country.
