Don’t you wish to know the web host behind a website sometimes?
Uhhhm okay, maybe it’s not you but I’m always curious about who’s hosting who. I often spending long hours searching for website’s host – just out of curiosity. The hard way of doing this would be searching a site’s whois and if I’m lucky (that the site’s info is not privated) I’ll get what I want (the web host) pretty soon.
Who is hosting this?
The easy way? Use WhoIsHostingThis.
Launched in summer 2007 by two web developers in Zagreb, Gordan Orlic and Stan Sredl and was bought over by London-based Quality Nonsense Ltd in August 2008, WhoIsHostingThis is a webmaster tool that lets you discover which web host a website uses. Simply keyin any website address into the search box and hit enter, the tool will return with the result of the website IP, web host, name servers, and a brief profile of the website.
Example: Check out who is hosting W.H.S.R.?
Sidenote: Hey if you got the name of web host hosting the website that you like a lot, why not let me know about it so that I can test and list it in my hosting reviews? I can be reached at jerry [a] webhostingsecretrevealed.com
