                    Where, when you try to access any pages in your site, at first your index.php file run. Then it
navigate to where you fixed it to go, it goes to that page. In your index.php should be like this:

                  $url=explode('/',$_GET['url']);
                 if($url[0]=='home.php') {
                   require_once('home.php');
                 }

                        where, you try to access your home.php file, first it comes to index.php and then check whether the home.php page is present or not. It navigates to home.php, if it is present in your site.

How to prevent access to php.ini file using .htaccess

                     Php.ini file is the configuration file. Any changes in php.ini file can affect the functionalities of php. It is read each time the php is initialized. By default, php.ini file is located in /user/local/lib directory on your server.  Max_execution_time, shot_open_tag, memory_limit, allow_url_fopen, PHP_INI_SYSTEM, PHP_INI_ALL, PHP_INI_PERDIR are some of the modes present in a php.ini configuration file. It can be easily access by others . We can restrict this by .htaccess.
Example:
        <FilesMatch "\.(js | jpeg | jpg)$">
             Order allow, deny
             Deny from All
             Allow from env=REDIRECT_STATUS
        </FilesMatch>

               Where,
                            You can add any file type by type extension without '.' and each one is separate by '|' .
               OR

       <Files php.ini>
          Order allow, deny
          Deny from all
       </Files>
                      Now your php.ini file is invisible to viewers.

How to add expires headers using .htaccess

                      Check your site in  google insights page speed. You will get a error "Leverage Browser Caching", if your server doesn't add caching headers to your site. If you add expires headers to your .htacces file, then you will get better site speed. Expires headers tells browser whether they should request file from browser or whether they should grab it from browser's cache. Its not only reduce the loads of download from server but rahter to reduce the number of http requests for the server.
Example:
        <IfModule mod_expires.c>
             # Enable Expiration
                ExpiresActive On

             # Default Directive
                ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 month"

             # Favicon
                ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access plus 1 month"

             # Images
                ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType image/jpg "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 month"

             # Css
                ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 1 month"

             # Javascript
                ExpiresByType application/javasacript "access plus 1 month"

             # Html
                ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 1 month"

             # Xml
                ExpiresByType application/xhtml+xml "access plus 1 month"

             # Manifest files
                ExpiresByType application/x-web-app-manifest_json "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType text/cache-manifest "access plus 1 month"

             # Media
                ExpiresByType audio/ogg "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType video/mp4 "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType video/ogg "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType video/webm "access plus 1 month"

             # Web feeds
                ExpiresByType application/atom+xml "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType application/rss+xml "access plus 1 month"

             # Web fonts
                ExpiresByType application/font-wof "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType application/vnd.ms-fontobject "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType application/x-font-ttf "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType font/opentype "access plus 1 month"
                ExpiresByType image/svg+xml "access plus 1 month"
        </IfModule>

Explation:
            Where,
                   mod_expires.c allows setting by file type to control how long browsers cache file.
                   ExpiresActive enable the expires.
                   ExpiresByType represents the type of file like image, html ...
                   "access + 1 month" means how long the file type cached by browser.

Compressing resource with gzip using .htaccess

                       After you host your site, check the speed of your site in google insights page speed. You may be get less speed for your site if your information is not compressed. Mostly all sever can compress the files before send it to download. If the server didn't do this, you have to do compress your file. It can be done by .htaccess.

Enable compression using mod_deflate() in .htaccess:

                     Gzip is a server process that compress your files on fly before transmission to the user. It is used to compress text files like html, css and javascript. It reduces the visitor time and your bandwidth. Due to compression, the speed of your site will be increased.
Example:
                <IfModule mod_deflate.c>
                      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/text
                      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain
                      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
                      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css
                      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml
                      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript
                      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/javascript
                      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/javascript
                </IfModule>
Explanation:
            Where,
                         mod_deflate.c provides the output filter ' DEFLATE ' which is used to compress the file in your browser before send it to download.

Enable compression using mod_gzip() in .htaccess:

                 
     
                <IfModule mod_gzip.c>
                       mod_gzip_on Yes
                       mod_gzip_dechunk Yes
                       mod_gzip_item_include file .(html? | txt | css | js | php | pl )$
                       mod_gzip_item_include handler ^cgi-script$
                       mod_gzip_item_include mime ^text/.*
                       mod_gzip_item_include mime ^application/x-javascript.*
                       mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^image/.*
                       mod_gzip_item_exclude rspheader ^Content-Encoding: .*gzip.*
               </IfModule>
               

You can also done by your php file. Just add this to your header file.
<?php
           if(substr_count($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING'],'gzip')) ob_start('ob_gzhandler');
           else
           ob_start();
?>
After add this content to your .htaccess file, you can check whether your site is compressed or not in  website.
