Things only respond to pings if allowed to. Thanks to continual
hacking attempts, many admins turn off features they don't need, or
feel that someone else may exploit.
Pings (as things like traceroute generally use) only prove that
something responds to pings, they don't prove whether HTTP access to a
webserver works or not. Likewise for any other service running.
Your ISP may be ignoring pings, many other services in between, and
even your own router.
