.htaccess is a small text file which is located either directly in a domain folder or inside a subfolder to inform the server how it has to address requests when a site or a folder that is part of it is accessed. Many commonly used scripts including WordPress and Joomla™ 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 Internet sites, or you can request the visitor to type in a username and a password in order to view the content. You may also set up URL redirecting or use personalized error pages for your site, prevent other websites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, etcetera. An .htaccess file gives you far more control over your Internet sites and the way they work.
