With an .htaccess file, you shall define how the server which handles the requests to your websites must act in various situations. This is a text file with directives that are executed when an individual tries to open your Internet site and what happens next depends on the content of the file. For instance, you could block a certain IP address from opening the Internet site, so the server will decline the visitor’s request, or you can forward your domain name to a different URL, so the server will redirect the visitor to the new web address. You could also use custom error pages or protect any part of your site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many widely used script-driven apps, such as WordPress, Drupal™ and Joomla™, use an .htaccess file to work properly.
