No, this is the worst way.
The right one is:

     server {
         server_name  _;  #default
         return 444;
     }

     server {
         server_name  mydomain.com
                      www.mydomain.com

                      # you may also
                      1.1.1.1 # allow IP-address
                      ""      # allow access without "Host" header, 0.7.11+

                      ;
         ...
     }
