.htaccess is a small text file that's placed either directly in a domain folder or in a subfolder to guide the server how it should handle requests when a site or a folder that's part of it is accessed. Many widely used scripts such as Joomla™ and WordPress use an .htaccess file. If you get a lot of fake traffic to your site, for instance, you may block the access of particular 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 can also set up URL redirecting or use customized error pages for your site, prevent other 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 function.
