.htaccess is a small text file that is installed either directly inside a domain folder or inside a subfolder to guide the web server how it must manage requests when a site or a folder which is part of it is accessed. Many widely used scripts including Joomla™ and WordPress use an .htaccess file. If you get a considerable amount of fake traffic to your Internet site, for instance, you can block the access of particular IP addresses and third-party websites, or you could request the guest to type in a username and a password to be able to see the content. You can also set up URL forwarding or use custom error pages for your site, prevent other Internet sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, etc. An .htaccess file shall give you a lot more control over your websites and the way they perform.
