Does .htaccess only effect the directory you upload it to?

    I would like to transfer my /blog/ directory to a new domain and the rest of the site to another new domain. Is it possible to upload different .htaccess so the redirects go to different domains?

    Does this make any sense ?

    It's designed to be uploaded to the root directory of the site, if it looks like the blog has been requested it goes one direction, otherwise it goes the other.

    RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/?blog(/.*)$ http://blog-site.com$1 [R=301,QSA,L]
RewriteRule (.*) http://other-site.com/$1 [R=301,QSA,L]
    Code (markup):
