With an .htaccess file, you will specify how the server that manages the requests to your websites should act in various cases. This is a text file with directives that are carried out when someone tries to open your Internet site and what happens next will depend on the content of the file. For instance, you may block a particular IP address from opening the website, which means that the server will decline the visitor’s request, or you can forward your domain name to a different URL, so the server may redirect the visitor to the new web address. You can also use personalized error pages or secure any part of your site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many popular script-driven applications, including WordPress, Joomla™ and Drupal™, use an .htaccess file to work correctly.
