The original purpose of .htaccess (reflected in its name) was to allow per-directory access control, by for example requiring a password to access the content. Nowadays however, the .htaccess files can override many other configuration settings including content type and character set, CGI handlers, etc.
Common usages are: - Authorization and authentication settings; - Rewriting URLs; - Blocking by IP address or domain; - Enabling SSI; - Changing the page that is shown when a server-side error occurs (404, 301 etc.) - Cache control. For SEO perspective it is important for Rewriting/redirecting URLs and blocking some parts of your website from search engines to prevent duplicated content warnings and penalty. Ads |
