Did you ever try to figure out which web hosting company is hosting those extreme traffic websites? Here is a very easy way to checkout who is the host of a particular website.

Who is Hosting This? Is a very simple and easy web service which provides you the host name of a particular web site. The reason I like it very much because, WHOIS database and other web site checking tools don’t provide you a clear info about that website.

You just need to enter a website address and this nifty tool will show you the web host provider of that website. It will not provide you the web hosts of the extreme large sites like Google.com & Yahoo.com, etc. as they have their own IP address ranges and uses their own servers.

Following are some great webmaster tools to find out domain name and DNS info.

Netcraft Web Server Query – This tools is used to find out the web sites operating system (OS), web server, and a graphic view of the time Type a website URL and Netcraft will tell you the site’s operating system, web server, and a graphical view of the time when last reboot was done for each of the computer’s serving that web site.

DomJax – Used to check the availability of a domain name and also gives an automatic Whois report for any domain that’s taken – just hover the mouse over the domain name and DomJax pops up a neat “thought bubble” which contains the details of that particular domain like who is the owner of that domain, expiry date and way to contact the owner.

AJAX DNS – Is a superb bunch of common DNS commands and tools packed in a non-geeky interface. See all DNS records and Reverse DNS records for a domain, HTTP headers, ping a domain or view the whois details for a domain.

Next time, don’t forget to figure out these cool little tools, to find the hosting info of a web site.
