 * I now have two WordPress installations, one on my own domain that I bought form
   the company that I am hosted with and another that seems to be hosted somewhere
   else.
 * I am confused as to where my company site is hosted. A friend wo is a web designer
   moved my company site (which h designed by him and which he used to host on his
   own server). He moved it for me but I am not sure where to!
 * The login for my personal site is [http://www.[myname].com/wp-admin](http://www.[myname].com/wp-admin)
   and the login for my business site is [http://www.[mybusiness].co.uk/wp-admin](http://www.[mybusiness].co.uk/wp-admin)
 * I was wondering if it was possible to move them to the same place? How can I 
   find out where the business site is hosted? (yes I know I could ask my friend,
   but I like to learn for myself and besides he is always very busy and I don;t
   like to impinge too much on his generosity.

 * You could start by doing a [http://whois.net/](http://whois.net/) search or a
   [DNS lookup](http://mxtoolbox.com/DNSLookup.aspx) and follow the trail to the
   IP address.
 * Yes, you can host two WordPress installations on most hosting accounts.
 * If you posted the domain name I or someone else might have been able to help 
   you with it 🙂

 * You will still need to contact your friend for the log in info to where that 
   site is hosted; can’t move it without logging in to the hosting control panel
   🙂

 * You need to have the login details to be able to move either of these sites. 
   You should decide which host you want to continue using and follow the [http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress)
   guide to move the other website to the host you choose.
 * You may want to ask your friend (the web designer) to help you 🙂
