How to Trace A Website Using Command Prompt – Hacking Tip

Tracing or Routing a website using command prompt. This tip is only meant for educational purpose. I mainly use this trick to find out the hosting provider where a particular domain is hosted.

Follow the below steps:

1.   Start->Run->CMD  ie; open Command prompt

2.  Type the following command and press enter.

tracert www.websitename.com

in the above command, enter the desired website name.

Once you press enter, it tell you where a particular domain is hosted, Location, Country and some details of that domain.

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for this trick if this is used in a wrong way. I didn’t invent this method rather I myself found it somewhere else. Do not use this for Hacking purpose.
