An .htaccess file is a text file that features directives that tell a server how to operate in specific cases. It should be placed in the folder where these directives should be carried out. A lot of script-driven apps use this sort of a file to function properly - WordPress and Joomla, in particular. You can use this type of a file with custom made content as well and do lots of things - block an IP address, an entire network or particular sites from accessing your site, set personalized error pages that will show up rather than server-generated ones if a visitor encounters some error on the website, direct a domain or a subdomain to another web address, create a password-protected area and more. With an .htaccess file, you'll have far better control over your world-wide web presence.
