About Our Store
Our store has been custom developed by us with a focus on modernizing the shopping experience, providing a scalable interface that works with any device, while offering as much detail about the products and services on offer.
Our platform goal is to provide the products and services needed for no more than what they should be at the best possible price we can obtain them for.
We acknowledge that in our early stages of trading this may not always be possible, however our ambitions will remain the same throughout our development as an e-commerce storefront.
About Our Hosting Solutions
As a hosting platform, we feel it's important that everyone knows we have complete control of all data center equipment, meaning any hardware we use is purchased and payed for before it goes into operational use.
What this means is we can gather precise information about the operational costs to power and operate any data centre equipment we utilize along with server and network configurations to provide a highly adaptable and dynamic environment for your services.
When making your order for the available range of servers and services we offer, you’re in complete control of exactly what you need.
Unlike many hosting services, we've decided on taking a risky decision to develop our platform with as much freedom as is essentially possible with the resources and knowledge we have.
When purchasing resources, you may choose the exact quantity of RAM, storage, vCPU cores and more to match your exact specifications and ensure you’re not charged for what you don’t need.
Not only will you be able to buy exactly what you need, but you will also be able to freely choose exactly what service you wish to host at any time once you have the resources though our custom build user interface.
Finally and quite possibly the most important change comes with our pricing fees.
If you've already checked out our store and taken notice of the "Loyalty Billing Breakdown" notice before adding a service to your cart, you should be advised that this a genuine feature of our platform that we fully honour.
To explain how this works, within the initial 12 months, your fees will go towards the support and expansion of the network and pay off any fees that may have been incurred by us to gather the resources to host your service.
Once past the initial 12 months, your charges will drop to a simple utility fee for electrical consumption and will be maintained at this price point based on utility fees.
Should you have any question about our pricing, feel free to head over to the contact page and drop us an email and we'll get any questions you have answered as best as we can.

Our Developing History
In 2017, ShockNet came into existence; starting out as purely a web-based method of transferring files quickly and easily to external locations over the internet. Often methods for transferring files between people was complicated and using a web server helped solve this issue making file transfers easier. Over time however, ShockNet slowly started to evolve and develop new pages and features to the site as a place to test out new ideas and concepts.
One of the many ideas around the site that was implemented, is its compatibility and adaptability to work on any and all devices no matter the screen size. Initially when developing the site, research was done and various other web sites were looked at to compare the way they looked and handled displays of different sizes.
Smartphones were the first issue and as such, the site was targeted at being compatible to work on these devices first. The issue with these devices is that they have small high density displays that rescales the website to allow the user to easily see the content without discomfort. This gave a base to work with, a maximum width content could be in order to display properly on smartphones that could scale larger on desktops and other devices.
Desktops were the next focus of attention; At the time, we operated a development system with a display width equal to 3x 1080p displays side by side. the first immediate realization was that virtually no web page on the internet was capable of utilizing this sort of display width effectively. This of course led to the development of our site moving expressly away from the original webpage stance and operating a more dynamic site page.
Our current most recent attention has been on the progression and development of our store; This of course contains a variety of store types targeting a variety of customers.
