Who's behind a website
Enter a domain and the checker combines three sources: live DNS records (A, NS and MX), the IP address owner from the official internet registry, and the site's HTTP response headers. Together they reveal the hosting company, the server's approximate location, any CDN or platform (Cloudflare, Vercel, Netlify, Shopify, WP Engine, Kinsta, Fastly and more), the DNS provider and the email provider (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Zoho…).
If the site is behind a CDN or proxy, you'll see that too — along with a note that the origin server is deliberately hidden.

- Look up the server's network in detail with the IP Lookup.
Frequently asked questions
Can I always find the real host?
Not when a site uses a CDN or proxy like Cloudflare, which hides the origin server's IP address by design.
How do I contact a site's host about abuse?
Use the abuse email from the IP Lookup or WHOIS results.
Is this information public?
Yes. DNS records, IP registration data and response headers are all public.
