Shock Hosting (shockhosting.com)

Shock Hosting is a hosting provider that has been operating since 2013, initially offering shared hosting and domain registrations before expanding its service line. In 2014 the company added reseller hosting, and in 2015 it launched virtual servers, originally based on OpenVZ virtualization and later migrated to KVM. Today its core offerings include shared hosting, reseller hosting, KVM-based virtual servers, dedicated servers, and domain registration. The company operates as Shock Hosting LLC and states that it owns and manages its server hardware.

Shared and reseller hosting plans run on cPanel, with WHM available for reseller accounts, and use LiteSpeed web server technology. Both tiers include daily backups, free SSL certificates via AutoSSL, outbound email filtering through MailChannels, and security features such as Imunify360. A drag-and-drop website builder is also included. The platform supports common development environments, including PHP with version selection, MySQL databases, and SSH access. Free migrations are offered for shared and reseller hosting.

Virtual servers support both Linux and Windows operating systems, managed through SolusVM. They include full root access and are unmanaged by default. Dedicated servers include remote management access and are also unmanaged unless otherwise specified. Both virtual and dedicated servers include DDoS protection. Shared hosting, reseller hosting, and virtual servers are advertised with a 100% uptime guarantee and a 7-day money-back guarantee, with dedicated servers also covered by the uptime commitment. Technical support is available around the clock via ticketing and live chat.

The company's infrastructure is distributed across data center locations in the United States, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region. In the United States, services are available from multiple locations, including New York, Los Angeles, Dallas, and Seattle, through third-party data center operators. European locations include the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, and Romania, while Asia-Pacific locations include Australia, Japan, and Singapore. Dedicated servers are additionally available in other international locations.

Shock Hosting is a member of ARIN and RIPE NCC and supports both IPv4 and IPv6 across its services. The company offers domain registration and transfers and provides dedicated IP addresses with shared and reseller hosting plans.
