  jingoplanet.com is the blog in question, and i’ve read things about Semalt that makes me think I should be finding a way to block access from this referrer?

  Thanks :)

  There isn’t a way to block someone from a public blog (or website). An option is to make your blog Private and invite specific users you choose. Please take a look:

  You can also control comment moderation:
