With an .htaccess file, you shall define how the web server that handles the requests to your websites should act in a variety of scenarios. This is a text file with directives that are executed when an individual tries to open your Internet site and what happens next will depend on the content of the file. For example, you can block a specific IP address from opening the Internet site, and the server will decline your visitor’s request, or you can redirect your domain name to a different URL, so the server will redirect the visitor to the new web address. You could also use customized error pages or shield any part of your Internet site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many well-known script-driven apps, like WordPress, Drupal™ and Joomla™, use an .htaccess file to function correctly.
