.htaccess is a small text file that is located either directly inside a domain folder or inside a subfolder to guide the web server how it has to manage requests when a site or a folder that is part of it is accessed. A lot of widespread scripts including Joomla™ and WordPress use an .htaccess file. If you get loads of fake traffic to your site, for instance, you'll be able to block the access of certain IP addresses and third-party Internet sites, or you could request the guest to type in a username and a password to view the content. You can also set up URL redirecting or use customized error pages for your Internet site, prevent other sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, etcetera. An .htaccess file shall give you significantly more control over your websites and the way they function.
