Simple Website Blocker was designed as an attempt to provide system administrators with a simple means of blocking access to any website.

Simple Website Blocker can also work in favor of parents who need to restrict access to social or gaming services in order to prevent children from wasting time online.

The first thing to be noted is that Simple Website Blocker is able to block not only one webpage, but several, for that matter. In fact, access can be restricted to an entire list of websites defined by the user.

Moreover, there’s no limit to the number of addresses that can be added to the list; unblocking items is also possible if you decide to lift the restrictions on some of the websites in the list.

Each of the blocked addresses will be shown alongside the date and time they were added in the list. This way, you can tell how much time has passed since you put an embargo on a certain domain.

Another advantage of Simple Website Blocker is that it will pay the expected results on any browser installed on the system, be it Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari or others.

On the downside, we noticed its inability to block subdomains of an address. For instance, if the restricted domain is example.com, the limitation won’t work on a subdomain of its address – let’s say news.example.com, for the sake of argument.

Another shortcoming, is, in our opinion, the lack of a password protection feature for the main application. This would have been a major advantage, because access to the block list is granted to anyone as long as the application isn’t protected in any way.

The list of upsides and downsides is balanced, so to say, but we would have been glad to encounter a higher degree of a security for an application that restricts resources.
