With an .htaccess file, you'll specify how the server that addresses the requests to your web sites have to act in different cases. This is a text file with directives that are carried out when an individual tries to open your site and what happens next will depend on the content of the file. For example, you can block a specific IP address from accessing the site, so the server will decline the visitor’s request, or you can redirect your domain to an alternative URL, so the server will direct the visitor to the new web address. You may also use custom error pages or secure any part of your website with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many popular script-driven apps, like WordPress, Drupal™ and Joomla™, use an .htaccess file to function properly.
