When you ping mywebsite.com from an address without mywebsite.com in the hosts file what ip address is returned?

Is yoursite.com registered?
If so, you would need to check the DNS entry you have pointing to yoursite.com. You can check this setting at the site you used for registering your domain.
Just login to your account and there should be a link to their DNS server registry.
