Getting Started
To manage your blocklist:- Log in to your Massive Dashboard
- Navigate to Domain Blocklist in the left-hand menu
- The panel will display your current list of blocked domains and available management options

ads.trackerexample.net) - Click Add
- The domain will immediately appear in your blocklist
Bulk Upload CSV
- Click Bulk Upload CSV to add multiple domains at once
- Each domain should be listed on a separate line in the file
Wildcard Support
Wildcards can be used to block multiple matching domains. For example,*.example.com will match all subdomains under example.com.
Possible scenarios:
| Pattern | Description | Example Matches |
|---|---|---|
*.example.com | Block all subdomains (excluding example.com itself) | ads.example.com, ads.click.example.com |
example.* | Block all top-level domains and public suffixes | example.com, example.co.uk |
ads.*.example.com | Block all domains in-between | ads.click.foo.example.com |
*example* | Block domain at any level | ads.example.test.com, example.com |
Note: Only one wildcard per domain is supported (*example*is a special case). Blocklist entries likeads.*.test.*.example.comwill be rejected.
