[WTA] how to check others site hosting?

For example: what's webhosting digital forum used? how can we check it?

I have tried to using some service like whois, but I only get the domain info.

 

Try webhostdir.com or hostsearch.com

 

You could find out host of any website using its IP. You will get details info of that ip. Apart from this, you can try Who Is Hosting This?

 

also try http://who-hosts.com/

 

every checking system will only tell you about the root server. so this may not be useful.

 

you can try use ping

 

Thanks all, from your information now I can find the answer!!! thank youuu thank youuu

 

So can you share with us what for do you need to check other web sites to?

 

Checking potential competitors I guess.

 

It's a process, you first need to gain the ip address that is assigned to that domain, from there you do a whois on the ip address and there is all your information.

 

It will probably not be useful if you will try this method for digitalpoint or another project which use their own servers. If the website uses shared hosting, the root server is very often named like something.company-name.com.

 

Yep, you're right

Nice share Jose, actually this is the method that I run now

yes, just work with shared hosting
