An .htaccess file is a text file which incorporates directives that tell a web server how to behave in particular situations. It should be put in the folder in which these directives should be performed. Numerous script-driven apps employ such a file to work properly - WordPress and Joomla, for example. You can use this sort of a file with customized content too and do a wide range of things - block an IP address, a whole network or certain Internet sites from accessing your site, set custom error pages which shall be displayed instead of the server-generated ones in case a visitor encounters some error on the site, redirect a domain or a subdomain to another web address, set up a password-protected area and more. With an .htaccess file, you will have far better control over your presence online.
