.htaccess is a small text file which is installed either directly in a domain folder or in a subfolder to tell the server how it should manage requests when an Internet site or a folder which is part of it is accessed. Numerous popular scripts including WordPress and Joomla™ use an .htaccess file. If you get a considerable amount of fake traffic to your site, for instance, you may block the access of certain IP addresses and third-party Internet sites, or you may request the visitor to type in a username and a password to be able to see the content. You can also set up URL redirecting or use customized error pages for your website, prevent other sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, and so forth. An .htaccess file gives you significantly more control over your websites and the way they work.
