There are several ways to find out a website's IP address:

  1. ping:

    ping example.com 
    # Will display the IP address in the command output.
    
  2. nslookup:

    nslookup example.com
    # The IP address(es) will be shown in the "Non-authoritative answer" or "Name" section.
    
  3. dig:

    dig example.com A 
    # The IP address(es) will be shown in the "ANSWER SECTION".
    
  4. Online services: Many websites offer tools to view the IP address by domain name (e.g., ipinfo.io, icanhazip.com).

  5. Traceroute:

    traceroute example.com # Linux/macOS
    tracert example.com   # Windows
    # The IP address of the target server will be the last in the list.
