With an .htaccess file, you'll specify how the web server which handles the requests to your web sites have to act in various scenarios. This is a text file with directives that are carried out when an individual tries to open your site and what happens next is determined by the content of the file. As an example, you could block a particular IP address from opening your website, therefore the server will decline the visitor’s request, or you can forward your domain to some other URL, so the server will direct the visitor to the new web address. Also you can use personalized error pages or preserve any part of your Internet site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many popular script-driven apps, such as WordPress, Drupal™ and Joomla™, use an .htaccess file to operate efficiently.
