.htaccess is a small text file that is placed either directly inside a domain folder or inside a subfolder to inform the server how it has to manage requests when a site or a folder that's part of it is accessed. Numerous commonly used scripts such as Joomla and WordPress use an .htaccess file. If you get a great deal of fake traffic to your Internet site, for instance, you'll be able to block the access of certain IP addresses and third-party sites, or you may request the guest to input a username and a password in order to view the content. You may also set up URL redirecting or use custom made error pages for your website, prevent other Internet sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, and so forth. An .htaccess file gives you much more control over your sites and the way they operate.
