With an .htaccess file, you'll define how the web server that addresses the requests to your websites have to act in a variety of occasions. This is a text file with directives that are performed when an individual tries to open your Internet site and what happens next is determined by the content of the file. As an illustration, you can block a certain IP address from accessing your website, and the server will decline your visitor’s request, or you can redirect your domain to some other URL, so the server may redirect the visitor to the new web address. You could also use personalized error pages or preserve any part of your Internet site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file inside the correct folder. Many widely used script-driven apps, like WordPress, Drupal and Joomla, use an .htaccess file to operate properly.
