Blocking a site from linking to a URL.

Is it possible to block a site from linking to a site on my server from their webpage? I host a site that has some religious content, and a pagan site has taken to posting links to content on that site in order to mock them. Is it possible to prevent a link posted on that site from connecting with the URL I host.

Hmmm....I dont think that it is possible.

Have you tried asking the owner of the other site to not link to you?

Yeah, they don't seem interested in anything they have to say unless they can make fun of it. It's not my site. It's a site I host.

There's really nothing you can do to prevent them from linking to you outside of going through the legal system if there's some kind of justification for that.

My best advice though is to just ignore it. The more you try to get them to stop the more likely they are to link to you more. If they're doing it to mock the site then any contact with them will just make them want to continue.

I was wondering if you could do a block by referrer...

Found this

You can also use the .htaccess and write a mod_rewrite rule to check the referrer and block them.
Maybe intresting to search some mod_rewrite tutorials on google.
