I’ve been asked many times how to limit website access by allowable IP’s. This is fairly simple to accomplish with .htaccess. Simply follow the steps below:

1. Create a file and name it .htaccess. Paste the code into it. Replace 255.255.255.255 with you IP address. (If you don’t know it, you can get it here: WhatsMyIP)

2. order deny,allow
   deny from all
   allow from 255.255.255.255 
   

3. Once the file is created, put it in the root directory. That’s it!
