Don't know what host we are with
Hi,
We don't know what hosting company our site is hosted with. Our web developer set up the hosting account for us and for the past couple of months they have completely dissapeared with no trace. Fortunately we have our ftp information.
Is there a way to determine what hosting company we are with? The only information we have is the IP of the server our site is hosted on.
Thanks!
Zeeshan

Ping your domain then do a lookup on the IP at www.dnsstuff.com.

You can search it on webhosting.info
There you can read informations about your domain, your hosting company, and the registrant contact.

Go to www.dnsreport.com and type in your domain name, that will give you the nameservers. From the name servers, you can determine who your host is.

I think you can also look up from WHOIS
www dot whois dot sc slash yourDomainName.com
That should give you some info to start with.
