Sometimes a webmaster is faced with the question of what hosting this or that Internet resource is located on. The reasons for this may be different: curiosity or desire to cooperate, if this hoster is stable. Or, on the contrary, to avoid problems when placing your resources on the territory of this hosting.
Instructions
Step 1
With the help of any whois service, you can find out the NS records of the domain of the resource you need, often people leave the hoster's records - by default, which only suits you. A record like ns *.imyachostera.ru will share the data with you.
Step 2
When checking through whois, you should pay special attention to the line with the name - netname. Often the hosting provider leaves their data in this record. As here - netname: IMYAHOSTERA-CORP, for example.
Step 3
Also, to check the reliability of the data obtained earlier, you need to trace the site domain. In Windows, this is done using the command - tracert domainsite.ru. By the domains of the latest connections, you can most likely find out the data center or hoster of the resource you need.
Step 4
Most large hosters put 404/403 pages on the stub - information about themselves. You can call this page by accessing a directory without an index file, for example, a folder with photographs, a folder for downloaded files, a site engine cache, a system folder, etc. If you're lucky, you will see a page with information about the error from the hoster.
Step 5
To finally make sure and check your assumptions once again, you can visit specialized resources for determining a hoster, for example, 2ip.ru/guess-hosting. You can also use special add-ons for the firefox browser, for example, Wipmania - wipmania.com/ru/plugins/.
