What are the differences between Homejoy, FlyMaids, and Homeaglow?

Are they all incorporated as the same entity, or are they all separate?

Are different founders of Homejoy working on different angles?

and dazzlingcleaning.com, exact copy of Flymaids (i.e. the cached version, Flymaids was taken down just now it seems).

Oh just looked at the cached version of the Flymaids website on google and searched for some of the text they had on google.

Such as 'Add your specific cleaning instructions and pay securely online by debit or credit card. No cash, no fuss.'

Which prompted https://mopp.com this time, but also willowmaids and urbahome. This is getting beyond ridiculous haha.

I'm starting to wonder if this isn't just the lorum ipsum of cleaning websites.

How seriously weird. I do notice that mopp.com, unlike the rest, says "Powered by Handy".

At least 3 with that same footer - all taken down now.

Perhaps a lame attempt to corner the market? Not sure how well that would work out with the exact same content - google punishes such things.
