webmaster

World-Wide Web (Sometimes "webmistress") The alias or role

of the person(s) responsible for the development and

maintenance of one or more web servers and/or some or all of

the web pages at a web site. The term does not imply any

particular level of skill or mastery (see "webmonkey").

The webmaster's e-mail address often appears on the homepage of the site. Failing that, you could try sending e-mail

to postmaster (from which the term is probably derived) or

root at that host, possibly after removing an initial

"www.".
