An .htaccess file is a text file which features directives that tell a web server how to operate in particular cases. It needs to be placed in the folder in which these directives should be carried out. Many script-driven apps use such a file to operate properly - WordPress and Joomla™, in particular. You can use this sort of a file with personalized content too and do a wide range of things - block an IP address, an entire network or particular websites from accessing your site, set personalized error pages that will be displayed rather than server-generated ones in case a visitor encounters some error on the website, forward a domain or a subdomain to a different web address, create a password-protected area plus much more. With an .htaccess file, you shall have far better control over your world-wide web presence.
