How to See the Owner of a Website

Sometimes we need to learn the person or company behind a website. We may be about to make a purchase or just wondering what's going on. Then the first thing is to check for "About Us", "Company Profile" kind of pages. Afterwards the next, and a more important, part comes: WHOIS
.

WHOIS, is a domain name ownership querying system. Here is an example: We are about book a hotel room from Hotel-Board.com and wondering who these guys are. We make the following search: http://whois.domaintools.com/hotel-board.com .

It shows us plenty of information about the web site.
