Here are a few good sites for "researching" an IP address.
IP2Location offers a 20 free look-ups per IP address a day. If you sign up for the free Demo account that number is increased 10x.
Maxmind is another sweet site.
GeoBytes also works well.
If you're unsure as to what you're own IP address is, go to Whatismyip You're IP address will pop up.
Keep in mind that pinpointing the exact location of someone is done with a subpoena. These locators give a general area of where the IP is being traced from. Happy hunting!
Please feel free to post any locators you use &/or information you may have on them!
that locator is awesome. it didn't get my company name but it guessed the correct city i'm in. i should make that one first in my list on top and not last.
It's a different site. I just checked the one you mentioned, IP Address, and that also gave me my company name.
yeah i noticed that after i posted my comment. but lunch was calling. thank you for adding that site. i've already bookmarked it.
Here's another couple of somewhat helpful addys based on latitude and longtitude, which you can usually get from any of the above IP Locator websites. Replace the x's with the lat and long coordinates.
http://ws.geonames.org/findNearbyPostalCodes?lat=xx.xxxx&lng=-xx.xxxx - This will find nearby zip codes (It was fairly accurate for me, it gave me my exact zip code first, then the neighboring ones.
http://ws.geonames.org/findNearestAddress?lat=xx.xxxx&lng=-xx.xxxx - This one was accurate with the town but not the street address.
Another good one is DNSstuff they have lots of free tools to help you find "stuff". I will say that maxmind is the one I use most.
Ok I'll also toss this one out there - first THIS IS NOT A TRACKER only you can see your info, its a widget. Meaning its a toy that only you can see your info. So no freaking out on me. I posted it so that you can see your IP easier and then you can trace your ip with one of the sites mentioned here. I got this widget at Danasoft.com
Now if your going what the heck is she talking about I dont see anything then GOOD - that means your blocking trackers. Although this IS NOT a tracker we do have this on our list, only because it has sent some freaking out that they were tracked. Nope you weren't but we tossed it on the list anyways. If you are seeing it then you should check out our tracker blocker list here: How to Block Trackers If youwant to see what it looks like then you can turn off your adblock (click on the stop sign and uncheck the AdBlock Plus sign (just remember to put it back). Anywas there is your IP if you want to check it. This is a fun widget to put on your myspace if you want to freak some out -
Ha! This is exactly the one that totally freaked me out one day last year which led me to join a certain site to find out what it was. When I found out it was just a widget, boy was I relieved, it's good that you posted it because I'm sure it does freak quite a few people out.
Yeah generally when someone sees that one they flip out *FYI I did too* and we get a ton of questions. It is a funny little widget. Ok so for those who are to scared to look and they block it so they don't see it this is what it is (screen shot of mine)
The little guy under the sign changes and the last line changes all the time too. It is funny. Again only you see your info.
Hai,You can visit the site Ip-details.com here you can find the ISP ip address ,its location,Longitude,latitude etc.You can also find the ip location,isp name etc for multiple ip addresses at same time and there is domain name host search using this service you can find the Ip address for particular domain name.
