With an .htaccess file, you will define how the web server which manages the requests to your Internet sites should act in various occasions. This is a text file with directives that are executed when an individual tries to open your website and what happens next will depend on the content of the file. As an illustration, you could block a specific IP address from opening the website, so 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 could also use personalized error pages or preserve any part of your Internet site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file inside the correct folder. Many popular script-driven apps, including Joomla™, WordPress and Drupal™, use an .htaccess file to work properly.
