.htaccess is a small text file which is located either directly in a domain folder or in a subfolder to inform the server how it has to manage requests when a website or a folder which is part of it is accessed. Many widely used scripts such as Joomla™ and WordPress use an .htaccess file. If you get a considerable amount of fake traffic to your site, for example, you may block the access of specific IP addresses and third-party Internet sites, or you may request the visitor to type in a username and a password to be able to see the content. You could also set up URL redirecting or use custom made error pages for your Internet site, prevent other Internet sites from linking to your content directly and from using your account’s traffic quota, etcetera. An .htaccess file shall give you far more control over your sites and the way they function.

We have an easy-to-work-with .htaccess generator tool which will allow you to set up and use this type of files without any trouble even if you don't have previous experience and you do not know the syntax of the particular directives for this type of a file. The tool is part of the Hepsia CP, included with our Linux cloud web hosting and any option in it could be enabled by choosing acheckbox and eventually by entering a username or a URL, depending on what exactly you need to do with the .htaccess file. You could also choose where the file should be created, so you won't have to do anything by hand after or before that. Using an .htaccess file, you'll be able to select the PHP version which will be active for a particular domain, even if it's not the same version as the one for the whole account.
