 * We have a client that is being spammed by bots from other countries and it is
   affecting their Google Analytics reports as the bots are showing as visits from
   these countries and showing inaccurate data for users and visits.
   I was wondering,
   in regard to WordFence and Google Analytics, if a country is blocked in WordFence
   Premium, does it block the bots coming from a countries IP address BEFORE it 
   would hit the Goggle Analytics reports? This meaning the bot attempted to the
   access the site but WordFence blocks the bot before it can hit teh site and trigger
   a visit in Google Analytics?

 * Hi [@xobeewebdev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/xobeewebdev/),
 * Country Blocking is a paid feature. We’re unable to discuss anything other than
   Wordfence Free here as wordpress.org kindly provide the forums for supporting
   that product. If you contact our team at **presales @ wordfence . com**, they
   can check whether your use-case is suitable for Premium or Care and discuss your
   query in more detail.
 * Many thanks,
   Peter.
