An .htaccess file is a text file which contains directives that tell a web server how to behave in particular situations. It must be placed into the folder where these directives should be performed. Numerous script-driven apps use this kind of a file to operate properly - WordPress and Joomla™, for example. You can use this kind 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 custom error pages that shall show up rather than server-generated ones if a visitor encounters some error on the site, direct a domain or a subdomain to another web address, set up a password-protected area plus more. With an .htaccess file, you will have more effective control over your web presence.
