How can I find the administrator of a website?

Question

The question above sums it up, but I will restate it here: What is a resource I can use to find the administrator of a website?

Solution 1

If you can't find it on the website, try whois

Solution 2

If you cannot find the admin of a specific website just try to write an email to:

• [email protected]
• [email protected]
• [email protected]

Often these email addresses are redirected to the appropriate authority/person.

Furthermore it is possible use the contact form which many sites have and just explain you want to contact the administrator. The responsible person will know how to redirect your request.

Welcome to Pro Webmasters, Sandy. Can you expand this answer to make it more complete? For example saying where you can find whois information or example output from whois?
