With an .htaccess file, you will determine how the server which handles the requests to your web sites should act a number of occasions. This is a text file with directives that are carried out when an individual tries to open your site and what happens next depends on the content of the file. As an example, you may block a specific IP address from accessing the Internet site, so the server will decline your visitor’s request, or you can forward your domain name to another URL, so the server will direct the visitor to the new web address. You could also use customized error pages or preserve any part of your site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many widespread script-driven apps, like WordPress, Drupal™ and Joomla™, use an .htaccess file to function efficiently.
