.htaccess is a small text file which is placed either directly in a domain folder or in a subfolder to inform the server how it has to manage requests when a site or a folder which is part of it is accessed. Many commonly used scripts including WordPress and Joomla™ use an .htaccess file. If you get a lot of fake traffic to your site, for instance, you could block the access of specific IP addresses and third-party websites, or you may request the guest to input a username and a password to be able to see the content. You may also set up URL forwarding 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 on. An .htaccess file offers you a lot more control over your sites and the way they work.
