Sometimes, you may like to know who owns or runs a certain website? Maybe just out of interest, or you might suspect that spam is coming from that site? Not all site owners release this information, but some do. If you check this site, it will reveal my name, which is available anyway on this site.
You can find out where the server is situated, so you know what country you're dealing with. This service is free and kindly provided by the www.whois-search.com website. Use your 'Back' button to return here!
Please note:- only 25 searches per 5 minutes are allowed.
This is to stop automated bots mining the data held in the whois database, so if you abuse it, it will display a message. Not every site will be listed in the whois database, so you might have to use another search site to cover different parts of the world.
If you own a website and you are a non-trading individual, but don't want to reveal all the personal information about yourself, you can opt-out of the WHOIS by contacting your registration agent, who will modify the domain name record so that your address details will not be displayed.
