.htaccess is a small text file which is placed either directly in a domain folder or in a subfolder to guide the web server how it has to handle requests when a site or a folder which is part of it is accessed. Many widespread scripts such as Joomla™ and WordPress use an .htaccess file. If you get a great deal of fake traffic to your Internet site, for instance, you may block the access of particular IP addresses and third-party sites, or you may request the guest to input a username and a password to be able to view the content. You could also set up URL redirecting or use personalized error pages for your Internet site, prevent other Internet sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, and so on. An .htaccess file shall give you far more control over your websites and the way they perform.
