Find Real IP address of Website Powered by Cloudflare

By
find cloudflare ip

Cloudflare is one of the fastest-growing CDN providers, which has free and premium service to accelerate, optimize & secure websites.

Millions of web properties powered by Cloudflare and I use their service too. If you are already using Cloudflare, then you might have noticed IP address in DNS lookup get reflected with Cloudflare.

Ex –

Cloudflare powers chandank.com, and when I do a DNS lookup, I get IP address 104.28.13.49, which is owned by Cloudflare.

There is no way in DNS lookup you will get the actual IP where your website is hosted. This is good in one way that Cloudflare protects it.

However, if you are doing some research on your competitor or just curious to find out actual IP, then it becomes difficult. But not to worry anymore, lately, I found an online tool, which actually reveals a real IP address.

Yes, you heard it right. There is a tool you can use to uncover the real (origin IP).

Crimeflare

Crimeflare, I don’t know how but it works. Here is what I got for chandank.com (173.247.252.216), where I am hosting.

To find out the real IP of the website not using Cloudflare, you may refer here.

What’s next?

If you are a site owner and concerned about protecting the origin server, then you should consider using Cloudflare Argo Tunnel as explained here.

Have you ever wondered how it is possible that every time your product owner brings in some new feature topic, the team response is they need to investigate technical possibilities and create some form of design before they can be sure how to develop that feature? Then that’s most likely because you have no Architecture Runway in place.
