One of the enemies of a writer / blogger at the website / blog is a problem Hotlink. Hotlink is a way to steal bandwidth images from your website / blog and put these images in our entry. Bandhwidth so that our website will be eaten by the Hotlinking. If we are the sort of WordPress and Blogspot Blogs are free of course it is not a problem. But what if we are hosting elsewhere. Over time, our website will run bandwidth so overspace difficult to access. For the layman who does not know this problem maybe he will add bandwidth and expenses hosting becomes increased.
In this post I will use the shield of Hotlinking by means of cPanel. If you are given access rights cPanel then you can do by yourself. Ways to protect them is as follows :
- First go to your cPanel
- Enter your username and password
- Search Hotlink or can also search in Security Menu> Hotlink Protection. Click
- Enable Hotlink by clicking Enable
- Add settings if necessary at the box menu Hotlink protection. submit
Until this configuration to protect from problems Hotlinking been completed. So some image files already protected from Hotlinking.
Go to the link below to test whether it is protected or not to include one image url of your website:
