With an .htaccess file, you will determine how the web server that handles the requests to your websites must act in different occasions. This is a text file with directives that are performed when someone tries to open your site and what happens next will depend on the content of the file. As an illustration, you may block a certain IP address from accessing the Internet site, and the server will decline your visitor’s request, or you can redirect your domain to another URL, so the server may direct the visitor to the new web address. You may also use personalized error pages or shield any part of your website with a password, if you place an .htaccess file inside the correct folder. Many popular script-driven applications, like Joomla™, Drupal™ and WordPress, use an .htaccess file to function properly.
