With an .htaccess file, you'll determine how the web server which handles the requests to your web sites should act in various cases. This is a text file with directives that are performed when an individual tries to open your website and what happens next depends on the content of the file. For instance, you may block a specific IP address from opening your website, and the server will decline the visitor’s request, or you can forward your domain to a different URL, so the server will direct the visitor to the new web address. You may also use customized error pages or secure any part of your website with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many well-known script-driven applications, like Drupal™, Joomla™ and WordPress, use an .htaccess file to function efficiently.
