An .htaccess file is a text file that incorporates directives that tell a web server how to act in particular cases. It should be placed into the folder where these directives should be carried out. Loads of script-driven apps employ this sort of a file to perform properly - WordPress and Joomla™, in particular. You can use this type of a file with personalized content as well and do quite a lot of things - block an IP address, a whole network or specific Internet sites from accessing your site, set personalized error pages that shall be displayed instead of the server-generated ones if a visitor encounters some error on the site, direct a domain or a subdomain to a new web address, create a password-protected area and much more. With an .htaccess file, you will have more effective control over your online presence.
