An .htaccess file is a text file that incorporates directives that tell a server how to behave in specific situations. It must be placed into the folder in which these directives should be carried out. Numerous script-driven apps employ such a file to perform correctly - WordPress and Joomla™, for instance. You can use this kind of a file with custom content as well and do quite a lot of things - block an IP address, a whole network or particular websites from accessing your site, set customized error pages which will appear rather than the server-generated ones in case a visitor encounters some error on the website, forward a domain or a subdomain to a new web address, create a password-protected area plus much more. With an .htaccess file, you will have much better control over your presence online.
