.htaccess is a small text file which is installed either directly inside a domain folder or in a subfolder to inform the server how it should address requests when an Internet site or a folder that is part of it is accessed. Many famous scripts including Joomla and WordPress use an .htaccess file. If you get loads of fake traffic to your Internet site, for instance, you could block the access of certain IP addresses and third-party Internet sites, or you could request the visitor to type in a username and a password to be able to view the content. You can also set up URL forwarding or use customized error pages for your website, prevent other Internet sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, etc. An .htaccess file offers you significantly more control over your websites and the way they operate.
