.htaccess is a small text file that is placed either directly in a domain folder or inside a subfolder to inform the server how it should address requests when a website or a folder that's part of it is accessed. Many widespread scripts such as WordPress and Joomla™ use an .htaccess file. If you get a considerable amount of fake traffic to your site, for example, you could block the access of particular IP addresses and third-party sites, or you can request the guest to type in a username and a password to be able to see the content. You may also set up URL forwarding 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, and so forth. An .htaccess file gives you far more control over your websites and the way they perform.
