When you need to manually update the DNS for your domain to point it to your website or when you don’t want to change the name servers as you are using some custom MX records for email or whatever may be the reason you will need to find the IP address of your website’s hosting or server to use it on DNS settings of your domain.
To find the IP address, simply log in to your Sangkrit.net hosting account then visit the ‘My Products’ page and follow the steps:
Finding IP Address On Managed WordPress
- On Managed WordPress, click the Settings button.
- Click the DNS tab. Your IP address is located under Value.
Finding IP Address On cPanel Hosting
- Visit your cPanel Hosting.
- Click Server Information from the right sidebar.
- You will find the hosting’s IP address.
The above process works for cPanel Hosting’s paper lantern view, if you are using classic view then you will find your hosting’s IP address on the left sidebar.
In case it is not there then at the bottom of the sidebar, click the ‘More Stats’ option and it will open a group of other server information and statistics where you will find the IP address.
Finding The IP Address On Plesk Hosting
If you are using Plesk hosting, you can find your server’s IP address there.
- Log in to your Plesk control panel.
- On the dashboard, navigate to Websites & Domains.
- Click on Hosting & DNS and then go to Web Hosting Access. You’ll find the IP address listed there.
Finding The IP Address On Hosting’s Client Area
Most hosting options have a client area or dashboard where the server’s IP address is listed.
- Log in to your hosting’s client area.
- Look for a section that provides hosting details.
The IP address is often listed under DNS Settings, Server Details, or Account Information.
Finding The IP Address Via SSH (Especially for Self Managed Dedicated & VPS Servers)
If you have SSH access to your server, you can use the terminal or command prompt to find the IP address.
Open the Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac/Linux) and use the command to access your server via SSH:
ssh username@yourdomain.com
After login type:
ifconfig
Or
ip a
The output will show your server’s IP address under the inet
section.
