.htaccess is a small text file that is installed either directly in a domain folder or inside a subfolder to guide the web server how it should manage requests when a site or a folder that is part of it is accessed. Lots of commonly used scripts like WordPress and Joomla™ 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 specific IP addresses and third-party websites, or you may request the visitor 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 Internet site, prevent other Internet sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, and so forth. An .htaccess file will give you a lot more control over your websites and the way they perform.
