####Sixth Step - Stopping Google Analytics 'ghost' spam
Simply using the Nginx blocker does not stop Google Analytics ghost referral spam
because they are hitting Analytics directly and not always necessarily touching your website.
You should use regex filters in Analytics to prevent ghost referral spam.
For this a simple google-exclude.txt file has been created for you and it is updated at the same time
when the Nginx Blocker is updated.
#####To stop Ghost Spam on On Analytics
Navigate to your Google Analytics Admin panel and add a Segment. This will need to be done on each and every site
where you want this filter to be in effect.
| Filter | Session | Include |
| :-------------: |:-------------:|:----------------------------------------:|
| Hostname | matches regex | your-website\.com|www\.your-website\.com |
| Filter | Session | Exclude |
