An .htaccess file is a text file which incorporates directives which tell a server how to operate in specific events. It must be put in the folder in which these directives should be executed. Numerous script-driven apps use this kind of a file to operate efficiently - WordPress and Joomla™, for instance. You can use this sort of a file with customized content as well and do lots of things - block an IP address, a whole network or specific Internet sites from accessing your site, set custom error pages which will show up rather than the server-generated ones if a visitor encounters some error on the site, direct a domain or a subdomain to another web address, create a password-protected area and more. With an .htaccess file, you shall have far better control over your presence online.
