An .htaccess file is a text file which includes directives that tell a web server how to act in certain cases. It must be placed into the folder in which these directives should be executed. A lot of script-driven apps employ this kind of a file to operate properly - WordPress and Joomla, for example. You can use such a file with customized content as well and do quite a lot of things - block an IP address, a whole network or specific sites from accessing your site, set customized error pages which will be displayed instead of the server-generated ones if a visitor encounters some error on the site, redirect a domain or a subdomain to a different web address, set up a password-protected area and more. With an .htaccess file, you'll have far better control over your web presence.
