What Axarnet does

Axarnet (legal entity AXARNET COMUNICACIONES S.L, CIF B-97193114) is a privately held Spanish managed hosting and cloud infrastructure provider founded in 1997 and headquartered in Madrid, with additional offices in Málaga, Valencia, and Bilbao. The company operates an owned Tier III, AENOR-certified data center at the Prored Technology Park in Paterna, Valencia, equipped with Intel SSD NVMe storage and redundant BGP connectivity, and serves more than 20,000 companies and 200,000 users primarily in Spain. Its portfolio spans shared web hosting, managed VPS servers, cloud servers, domain registration across 550+ extensions, SSL certificates (including Let's Encrypt), and specialized vertical hosting for WordPress, PrestaShop, WooCommerce, Moodle, and reseller use cases, supplemented by add-on services such as Microsoft 365 resale, Acronis backups, ESET antivirus, Monarx/Imunify security, and antispam filtering.

The business is a recurring subscription model sold primarily through a self-service e-commerce storefront (axarnet.es) with phone-based sales support and an affiliate channel paying 50% first-purchase commissions. Pricing is positioned at the low end of the Spanish SMB market (VPS from 4.58€/month, web hosting from 1.66€/month, Microsoft 365 from 4.20€/month on annual billing), and the core value proposition is fully managed hosting, free migration, 24/7 Spanish-language technical support by a 50+ person team, and local data residency with Spanish IP addresses. The company is bootstrapped with no disclosed institutional investors, completed one acquisition (Singular Web in March 2020), and relies on best-of-breed third-party technology partners (Intel, Plesk, cPanel, Microsoft, Acronis, ESET, Monarx, Imunify, Let's Encrypt) rather than proprietary in-house technology. Its customer base is heavily skewed toward Spanish SMBs, freelancers, digital project owners, e-commerce operators, and e-learning platform providers.
