Cache
Google and other search engines maintain a cache of web pages that are spidered by their robots and present in their index. This cache(snapshot) of the web page is saved by Google as 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 only represents how the page appeared last time Google search bot accessed it but you can still use it to vist the web site of your choice. Another way to view the cached version of the web pages is by using the 'cache:domain.com' search query.Internet Archive( Wayback Machine)
Internet Archive is a non-profit organization which stores cached version of 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. 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 is not a method that works cent percent but is still effective to access some 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 'https:'. This can confuse the software which is blocking the site you wish to visit. Although this might not work every time but it still is a handy trick to visit restricted sites.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 your website. You can use the command prompt and type 'ping mydomain.com' and 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.You might also use How to Access Blocked Websites to gain access to restricted sites.
