An .htaccess file is a text file that features directives which tell a server how to act in particular events. It should be placed into the folder in which these directives should be performed. Loads of script-driven applications use this sort of a file to function properly - WordPress and Joomla™, in particular. You can use this kind of a file with customized content too and do a wide range of things - block an IP address, an entire network or certain sites from accessing your site, set personalized error pages that will appear instead of the server-generated ones in case a visitor encounters some error on the site, redirect a domain or a subdomain to another web address, set up a password-protected area and more. With an .htaccess file, you shall have significantly better control over your web presence.
