HTACCESS file hypertext access base file which is used in SEO to solve some issue and improving ranking. This file consist the rules to access of webpage. Some pages which we have deleted from websites can be redirected to homepage or other page by 301 or 302 redirection using this file.
The most conman issue in SEO is canonical. Website homepage has multiple urls like www and non-www. It occur duplication issue in search engine. There is solution in htaccess file for such issue defining rules by small line of code.
