.htaccess is a small text file that's placed either directly inside a domain folder or inside a subfolder to guide the web server how it should handle requests when a site or a folder that's part of it is accessed. Numerous popular scripts like WordPress and Joomla™ use an .htaccess file. If you get a lot of fake traffic to your website, for example, you'll be able to block the access of certain IP addresses and third-party sites, or you may request the guest to enter a username and a password to be able to see the content. You can also set up URL redirecting or use custom error pages for your site, prevent other websites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, and so on. An .htaccess file gives you far more control over your Internet sites and the way they operate.
