With an .htaccess file, you'll determine how the web server which deals with the requests to your websites should act in a variety of cases. This is a text file with directives that are carried out when an individual tries to open your Internet site and what happens next will depend on the content of the file. For instance, you can block a particular IP address from opening the website, and the server will decline your visitor’s request, or you can redirect your domain to an alternative URL, so the server may direct the visitor to the new web address. You could also use custom error pages or preserve any part of your site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file inside the correct folder. Many widespread script-driven apps, including Drupal, Joomla and WordPress, use an .htaccess file to function properly.
