An .htaccess file is a text file which incorporates directives that tell a server how to operate in particular situations. It must be positioned in the folder where these directives should be carried out. Loads of script-driven apps use this type of a file to operate properly - WordPress and Joomla™, for instance. You can use this kind of a file with custom content as well and do a wide range of things - block an IP address, an entire network or certain Internet sites from accessing your site, set custom made error pages that will be displayed instead of the server-generated ones in case a visitor encounters some error on the website, direct a domain or a subdomain to a new web address, set up a password-protected area plus much more. With an .htaccess file, you will have much better control over your online presence.
