An .htaccess file is a text file which features directives that tell a web server how to behave in particular occasions. It should be positioned in the folder where these directives should be executed. Many script-driven applications use such a file to function properly - WordPress and Joomla™, for example. You can use this type of a file with personalized content as well and do quite a lot of things - block an IP address, an entire network or certain sites from accessing your site, set personalized error pages which will be displayed rather than server-generated ones in case a visitor encounters some error on the website, redirect a domain or a subdomain to another web address, set up a password-protected area and much more. With an .htaccess file, you will have far better control over your presence online.
