One way of accessing blocked websites is through the use of proxy websites.
But it is not possible to use them to unblock each web site. If the
website you wish to visit falls in this category, then you must use the
methods given in this article. Beforehand, I would like to make it clear
that different websites are blocked differently.
So you must try all of the tricks given before reaching the conclusion
that you cannot access a website.Some of the tips given in this article
can also be used to prevent your surfing and IP Address from being
logged. So, let us begin:-
Cache
Google and other search engines maintain a cache of web pages that are
spidered by their robots and are present in their index. This
cache(snapshot) of the web page is saved by Google as a back up in case
the original page is unavailable. This can be accessed by clicking on
the cached link besides the search results that appear for search
queries. The cached version of the page might not be the latest version
of the website but nonetheless, you can still use it to visit the web
site of your choice. Another way to view the cached version of a web
page is by using the
'cache:blockedwebsite.com' search query.
Internet Archive( Wayback Machine)
Internet Archive is a non-profit organization which stores websites in an archive
form using which you can see how the website looked at a specific time.
This is similar to a saved copy of the website on your local hard
drive. Just visit
Wayback Machine
and enter the address of the web site you wish to visit to see if a
cached copy of it is available on Wayback Machine. This archive can also
be used to access websites that are suspended or down.
Translation Services
Translation Services like
Google Translate and
Yahoo! Babel Fish
can also be used to unblock websites. Enter the URL of the website in
the translation field. Select a different language than the one on the
website in the "Translate From" field, and the language you read in the
"Translate To" field. e.g. If the web page is in English, select an
other language like Spanish in the 'Translate From' field and English in
'Translate To' field. This method can be effectively used to access
restricted websites.
Changing HTTP into HTTPS
This is the fastest way to gain access to restricted websites. To use this method, just change the 'http:' in your URL to 'http
s:'.
This can confuse the software which is blocking the site you wish to
visit. Although this might not work every time, it still is a handy
trick to tackle not so complex website blocks.
IP Address of the Website as Address
This is probably the most effective way to access blocked websites. To
use this method, first you need to find the IP Address of the website
you wish to visit. You can use the command prompt and
type 'ping mydomain.com' to get the IP Address of the restricted
website. Now that you have the IP address of your website, just enter it
in the address bar of your web browser and press Enter. It is highly
probable that the website you wanted to visit will be unblocked.
