I hope now you know that the part of the website which you and I able to see is made up of HTML and
sometimes JavaScript also and server is a computer just like yours, but it understand Python and BHB
like programming languages and it has a web server and database installed, which makes it a web server.
Right.
Web server like Apache and database like my MySQL.
Now there are many other web server, our databases available over the Internet.
You can easily find their names by searching on Google dot com, but I focus on Apache and MySQL because
they have more here than their competitors.
Right.
Now, let's start with the first, which is footprinting of website.
So let's see what we will discover or collect information about our target Web site.
So first we will find out its IP address.
Then we will look for domain name information like the name of the owner which registered the domain,
the contact number of the owner, the immunity of the owner, etc..
Then we will find out what programming languages our website has used.
OK, and other applications as well, like whether it is using Apache Web server or it is using IRS
Web server, which is Windows based web server.
OK, and what kind of database the website is using.
Then we will see about Guinness Records.
Then we will try to find out directories which are listed on the websites as well as which is hidden
by the owner.
And we will also try to find out other websites which are running on the same server.
So let's open your browser and type.
Who is OK?
Who is lookup?
Now let's open the first one.
So who is is a database which contain information about the owner of a domain name, for example, if
I type.
Let me zoom out first so that you will able to see it so I type in it is a domain name.
Now let's search for the information of this website.
OK, by the way, this is my Web site, and it's not working for now.
If you predicted this website, it says Web site is done now.
It has provided some important informations like the website is 510 days old.
OK, the website is created on this date and will expire on this date and is updated on this date.
Right.
It also provide the necessary information like.
This domain is using hosting services.
OK, so hosting is my Web hosting company.
OK, this is the IP address.
Of this all, and this is the IP location, right?
OK, now you have to feel captured to get more information about your target domain, and you also have
to create an account with them that we will able to access some of the more information.
So let's change another Web site, which is who DOT is.
OK.
See, these are similar websites which provide similar results.
So let's try to find out.
Using who Dot is.
And I hope it will provide some other information.
OK, data currently unavailable, so let's try on another website, which is to Buy.com, let us search
for it.
OK, so it says Bridgestone voice, GoDaddy.
So I have purchased this domain from GoDaddy dot com, but it has already expired and I am not the owner
of this domain anymore.
Right.
I don't own this website now, but it says domain name is this registrar is GoDaddy and website of creation
date.
So this immediate information is provided by who DOT is.
So there is not much of a difference.
You can also see DNS records clearly, which is not available on the previous website.
So you will be able to see that in his records.
OK, like cinema records, etc..
OK, so these are the very basics of where you can find out the information about the owner, about
the IP address.
OK, so let's see one more method of finding IP address of a website.
So let's open command prompt and typing w w w dot subotic dot in ok.
Remember this is the same IP as we have seen from who dot is website or who is a database.
