Why?

It is not ever necessary to visit a site to get your IP address.

Start > Run > cmd > ipconfig /all.

Simple, Fast. Efficient.

No need to visit any website for this...

Why? Because if you have a home network sharing an internet connection
and you're behind a cable/DSL router using port forwarding, then using
your method will give you a 192.168.x.x address assigned to you by your
router and not the internet address assigned to your modem by your ISP
(the latter is needed if anyone on the internet needs to connect to
you). This being the case, you have two choices -- use an internet
site to get it or connect to your router's configuration page and ask
it.
