Website is down with no access

  • Unknown's avatar

    Our website, http://www.universalhotelsupply.com is down as of yesterday I believe. We do not have access to our website because we used a third party who is suddenly out of business. We need to gain access to the host so we can retrieve website and data.

    When we search for website host, this is what comes up:

    It is hosted by: Automattic, Inc
    WHOIS information: Click here
    Organization name: Pressable
    IP address: 199.16.172.223
    AS(autonomous system) number and organization: AS2635 Automattic, Inc
    AS name: AUTOMATTIC
    Reverse DNS of the IP:
    City: San Antonio
    Country: United States

    Please help us ASAP. We are fully down online. We are a small business with limited resources. Thank you. [redacted phone number]

    Hi there:

    I’m not sure where you found that information, but it is incorrect.

    ICANN (the domain registry authority) has the following for the domain universalhotelsupply.com:

    Registrar: Network Solutions, LLC

    Current Nameservers: NS31.WORLDNIC.COM, NS32.WORLDNIC.COM

    You can search for the same information here: https://lookup.icann.org/lookup

    Also the site is not hosted with WordPress.com, but a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted elsewhere.

    Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, so WordPress.com staff can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers.

    You can find more information here about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

    You should reach out to Network Solutions – who appears to be your host – for help with this. Since they’re hosting your site’s files, they also have access to those files and are the only ones who can help with this.

    I hope that helps.
