Whois information mention Godaddy as regsitrar, but how do I know where is it hosted exactly? whois also has information on IP addresses. I'll assume for simplicity sake that you use a unix command line (if you don't there are dozens of websites that provide a web front end but since I can't link to them anyway ...) First find the IP address of the webserver(s): Will point out where it is hosted (I'll not mention the results to avoid moderator intervention needs.) If the server's IP range is outside of north america, you need to know the whois servers for the other continents: If you forget them, don't worry, arin will point you to these organizations if you read the output in detail. Some countries run their own service. e.g. like korea on
I think you should contact the ISP(s) providing connectivity to the website hosting the content $ dig www.webmasterworld.com a
It'll yield a.o.
;; ANSWER SECTION:
www.webmasterworld.com. 86400 IN CNAME webmasterworld.com.
webmasterworld.com. 86399 IN A 72.3.232.139
Alternatively you could just "ping" the server, it should echo (one of) the IP address(es) too. $ whois -h whois.arin.net 72.3.232.139
