I can’t find cPanel or block certain IP addresses
-
I want to block several IP addresses that are hitting my blog, dragonnomads.wordpress.com on a daily basis. They’re coming from Russia. I don’t see a cPanel thing on my site, and I don’t see a ‘comment blacklist’. I want to prevent a hacking or DOS attack.

Hi there,
cPanel is something you find on self-hosted WordPress sites, which are sites that you create on a “traditional web host” like Bluehost, GoDaddy, etc.
On WordPress.com we do not use cPanel, but you can add rules to the comment blacklist section of your site settings to automatically mark some comments as spam.
See: https://wordpress.com/support/settings/discussion-settings/#comment-blacklist
Hope this helps!
