An .htaccess file is a text file that includes directives that tell a web server how to operate in certain situations. It needs to be placed into the folder where these directives should be performed. Many script-driven apps use this kind of a file to work 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, a whole network or particular websites from accessing your site, set custom made error pages that will appear rather than server-generated ones if a visitor encounters some error on the website, forward a domain or a subdomain to a different web address, set up a password-protected area and more. With an .htaccess file, you'll have more effective control over your web presence.
