.htaccess is a small text file that's installed either directly inside a domain folder or in a subfolder to tell the server how it must address requests when an Internet site or a folder that is part of it is accessed. Lots of commonly used scripts including WordPress and Joomla use an .htaccess file. If you get a lot of fake traffic to your website, for instance, you can block the access of certain IP addresses and third-party websites, or you can request the visitor to enter a username and a password in order to view the content. You can also set up URL redirecting or use personalized error pages for your Internet site, prevent other sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, and so on. An .htaccess file will give you far more control over your sites and the way they work.
