You can find out who hosts a website

So just another reverse DNS lookup then. It will only report what is in the PTR record, which is NOT necessarily the host.

showed my dns provider instead of my host.

I'll just stick to nslookup ;-)

You can use these sites to find out the host and other information about a web site:
http://whoishostingthis.com/
http://network-tools.com/
http://domainwhitepages.com/

Yes. What exactly is the point of this tool?

I use domaintools.com. whoishostingthis.com doesn't really tell you much other than who purchased the IP originally and is not very accurate.

I beleieve that domaintools is commonly used and trusted source

**Natcoweb.com** · 03-26-2009, 10:26 AM

I'm taken aback, didn't get what's the point of the tool...
I entered Natcoweb.com and get as a result:
Website Name:Natcoweb.com
Hosted By:Natcoweb.com
