So, after countless tutorial guides, iptable templates, etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc and so on UFW and iptables etc., nothing ever works... as soon as the rules increase they begin to be ignored.

Now my rules.v4 is this: http://porn-update.com/temp/rules.v4, as simple as possible, only blocks the IP of the bastard and Baidu.

The server works well, the sites are online, everything looks wonderful, until I go to see the visits...



I'm losing about half of my normal visits.

It is true that the cloned sites were closed, and removed from the DMCA results in Google that probably created confusion even in statistics.

And maybe even in Webmaster tools.



But perhaps the most important thing is that the clicks that arrive at the pop-unders and the affiliate services have not diminished much



I noticed that most of the visits I lost in the server 14.04 (which contains my sites with more turnout), more or less 50% on 14.04 and about 30% on 16.04.

At this point the doubt comes, something is wrong with my iptables? Is it blocking something that shouldn't?

How can I understand/verify if the firewalls are doing more than necessary?

(I wouldn't even know exactly what I should look over HTTP, https, and SSH...)


Summary:
Applied new simple Rules. V4 in Iptables.
Closing clone sites and removing results (DMCA).
Loss about 50% visits (especially in 14.04).
Click to pop-unders and affiliations, almost constant.


The Doubts:
What the f*** is going on?
How can I check if the firewalls in my server are working properly or are blocking too much?
