Networking Questions and Answers - How to Find the IP Address of a Website?

RIchel writes in with a networking question
Question:I have two questions. First I want to know how to find the IP Address of any sites. Second I want to get more knowledge about how to use the command prompt?

Answer: There are a couple ways you can go about finding an IP address of a website. One simple way is to ping the website name itself. To do so open a command prompt and type in ping www.websitename.com and press enter. It will then show you the IP address of the site.

Another way is to use a WHOIS website to find out the IP address and other information about a particular website.

If you want to learn more about command prompt commands you can look them up online and practice on your home computer.
