If you're seeing traffic from ai-seo-services.com in your Google Analytics, you're likely dealing with referral spam. I'll show you exactly how to block this unwanted traffic using filters.

To block ai-seo-services.com from your Analytics, follow these steps:

1. Log into your Google Analytics account
2. Select the appropriate property
3. Click on "Admin" in the bottom left corner
4. In the View column, click on "Filters"
5. Click the "+ New Filter" button
6. Configure the filter with these settings:
   • Filter Name: Block ai-seo-services.com
   • Filter Type: Custom
   • Include/Exclude: Exclude
   • Filter Field: Campaign Source
   • Filter Pattern: ai-seo-services.com
7. Click "Save"

For additional protection, I recommend creating a second filter:

1. Create another new filter
2. Use these settings:
   • Filter Name: Block ai-seo-services.com (hostname)
   • Filter Type: Custom
   • Include/Exclude: Exclude
   • Filter Field: Hostname
   • Filter Pattern: ai-seo-services.com
3. Click "Save"

Important Notes:

• The filters will only block new traffic; they won't remove historical data
• Allow 24-48 hours for the filters to take effect
• Always verify your filters are working by checking your real-time analytics

To verify the filters are working:

1. Wait 24-48 hours
2. Check your referral traffic sources
3. Confirm ai-seo-services.com no longer appears

If you're still seeing spam traffic, you might need to:

• Check your filter syntax
• Ensure the filters are applied to the correct view
• Verify you have proper permissions to create filters

Remember to regularly monitor your analytics for new spam sources, as these domains often change their patterns to bypass filters.
