Hotlinking images have a bad effect on your site, because of hotlinking images can increase server load, using your server bandwidth and many losses . Before getting to know more plugins that can help us to prevent hotlinking images on wordpress, I will explain in advance on the understanding hotlinking.

What is a hotlinking ?

Hotlinking is use image links directly from one site to the other site pages without permission from the owner of the image / website owner. hotlinking example looks like this:

1
<img src="http://your-domain.com/image.jpg" alt="" />

If you are having a bad thing as I described above on your site, this time is the right time to protect the images on your site from the Hotlinkers.

Actually, to prevent hotlinking images can be performed by writing the command in a .htaccess file or enable hotlink protection in cPanel

In the URLs to allow access to enter the website of yours and all subdomains (including the mobile site if any) and other websites that are allowed to access your image as CDN if you use their services, various search engines (google, yahoo, ask, etc.) and another websites who has made prior arrangements.
