With an .htaccess file, you shall determine how the server that deals with the requests to your web sites must act in a variety of occasions. This is a text file with directives that are executed when an individual tries to open your Internet site and what happens next is determined by the content of the file. As an example, you may block a particular IP address from accessing the Internet site, which means that the server will decline the visitor’s request, or you can forward your domain name to another 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 Internet site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file inside the correct folder. Many well-known script-driven apps, such as Drupal™, Joomla™ and WordPress, use an .htaccess file to operate correctly.
