An .htaccess file is a text file which contains directives that tell a server how to operate in certain cases. It must be positioned in the folder in which these directives should be carried out. Numerous script-driven applications use such a file to operate efficiently - WordPress and Joomla, for example. You can use this type of a file with custom made content as well and do a wide range of things - block an IP address, an entire network or certain websites from accessing your site, set custom made error pages which will show up rather than the server-generated ones in case a visitor encounters some error on the site, forward a domain or a subdomain to a different web address, create a password-protected area plus more. With an .htaccess file, you shall have much better control over your world-wide web presence.
