As title says , can someone please tell me how can i check on which host is my website hosted.

    You could try a whois on the domain and see if you can figure it out from the nameservers it has listed (if it's not a private domain.) Not sure other than that!

    just Google smart whois.

    Whois is the name of a type of service that returns information about hosting and domain owner etc.

    As long as you didn't hide your information while registering the domain you can do a whois check (there are lots of sites that offer it) and it will tell you.

    I've had to do this myself lots of times as I use a lot of different hosts for my different sites.

    Run a command line window(cmd.exe).

    type: tracert yourdomain.xxx



    this way you will see on what domain your website is hostes e.g hostgator.com or bluehost.com or something else.

        If that's your host, you can probably kiss that website goodbye unless you have a backup.

    they are registered at Welcome WebHostingWorld.net and have the same billing address etc. so your host is probably Welcome WebHostingWorld.net and Superdomainzone.com is probably just where some of their name servers are hosted.

      Thanks man! thats the hosting company

      i was looking for it few days already and now i finaly can transfer my website. actualy that site is making me like 100$ monthly via amazon , but that host is really bad as my site got hacked like 2-3 times already and now i hop that new hosting company (got it from some wso offer) will be better at last in terms of security.

      thanks again !

      Yeah .. if you can access the host, you can make a backup. For instructions on moving a Wordpress site, download http://domainingdiva.com/transfer.pdf

      well i had just 1 site there, and i kinda gave up on that site like 5-6 months ago. And now it gained some traffic all by him self and started earning about 100$ monthly (last month but it keeps growing ) from amazon. and thats 1st site that makes some money to me, and motivation to keep it going. i was thinking that i cant make any money in IM but with this site i gained some hope that i can maybe make some more websites like this one and be able to quit my lousy job

      cheers
