.htaccess is a small text file that is located either directly in a domain folder or in a subfolder to guide the web server how it must address requests when an Internet site or a folder that is part of it is accessed. Lots of commonly used scripts including Joomla™ and WordPress use an .htaccess file. If you get a lot of fake traffic to your website, for example, you could block the access of specific IP addresses and third-party sites, or you can request the visitor to input a username and a password to see the content. You could also set up URL redirecting or use custom made error pages for your website, prevent other sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, and so on. An .htaccess file will give you far more control over your Internet sites and the way they perform.

.htaccess Generator in Cloud Hosting

We have a time and effort saving .htaccess generator tool that will enable you to set up and use this type of files without any difficulty even if you have zero previous experience and you do not know the syntax of the respective directives for this type of a file. The tool is part of the Hepsia Control Panel, included with our Linux cloud hosting and any option in it can be enabled by selecting acheckbox and eventually by entering a username or a URL, depending on what exactly you need to do with the .htaccess file. You may also select where the file should be created, so you won't need to do anything by hand after or before that. With an .htaccess file, you will also be able to pick the PHP version which will be enabled for a given domain, no matter if it isn't the same version as the one for the whole account.
