An .htaccess file is a text file that incorporates directives which tell a web server how to operate in particular events. It must be placed into the folder where these directives should be performed. A lot of script-driven apps use this sort of a file to operate properly - WordPress and Joomla™, in particular. You can use this kind of a file with personalized content as well and do lots of things - block an IP address, a whole network or specific websites from accessing your site, set personalized error pages that will be displayed rather than server-generated ones if a visitor encounters some error on the website, direct a domain or a subdomain to a new web address, create a password-protected area plus much more. With an .htaccess file, you shall have much better control over your web presence.
