Realtime Register proudly announces the addition of Blackwall to its growing vendor portfolio. Blackwall is a cutting-edge traffic management and bot control solution that empowers hosting providers, digital agencies, and website owners to take back control over who visits their websites, and why.
“Every organization hosting websites should integrate a solution like Blackwall into their infrastructure,” says Martijn Kamphuis, Director Vendor Relations & Strategic Alliances at Realtime Register. “Most website owners and hosting providers have no idea how many bots - both good and bad - visit their sites on a daily basis.”
While certain bots, such as SEO crawlers, provide value, the majority of automated traffic offers no benefit, and often poses risks. Blackwall provides clear visibility into what type of traffic is visiting a website and enables full control over who is allowed in. Users can create rules based on country, bot type, or individual sources, filtering out malicious or unwanted traffic while keeping essential services active.
“For many website owners, rising visitor numbers in Google Analytics (GA4) might seem like a positive trend,” Kamphuis continues. “But much of that increase can be attributed to bots rather than legitimate users. E-commerce platforms, in particular, are seeing a surge in price-scraping bots, often from competitors using automated tools to monitor and undercut pricing.”
Beyond competitive monitoring, malicious traffic, from hackers to entities in OFAC-sanctioned regions, continues to threaten online integrity. Blackwall offers a proactive way to identify, analyze, and block these unwanted visitors before they can do harm.
For Hosting Providers and Digital Agencies, Blackwall is not just a security enhancement. It’s a service differentiator. Realtime Register makes it simple to deploy: the solution runs entirely within the provider’s own infrastructure, ensuring zero latency for end users. It’s available starting from just a single domain, requiring only five small virtual machines to get started.
With the integration of Blackwall, Realtime Register reinforces its commitment to empowering partners with the tools they need to build safer, faster, and more transparent digital environments.
