.htaccess is a small text file that's placed either directly inside a domain folder or in a subfolder to inform the web server how it should handle requests when an Internet site or a folder which is part of it is accessed. Numerous widely used scripts like WordPress and Joomla™ use an .htaccess file. If you get a great deal of fake traffic to your website, for instance, you could block the access of particular IP addresses and third-party sites, or you could request the guest to input a username and a password to see the content. You could also set up URL forwarding or use customized error pages for your website, prevent other websites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, etc. An .htaccess file will give you far more control over your websites and the way they perform.
