I'm not trying to call them out on it, just pointing out the shit storm that happened last time.

Hmm, have they changed their landing page since you posted this, or are either of the sites A/B testing? Because I don't see any similarities. Highrise: http://i.imgur.com/wbqjkUP.jpg http://i.imgur.com/wbqjkUP.jpg Homejoy: http://i.imgur.com/DfW1CKQ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/DfW1CKQ.jpg

Looks quite different to me. Only rough similarities are having a smiling person on the left and text on the right. And if that's going to be an issue, lock up swathes of the web's designers. Non-issue, IMO.

I know people in the industry. They have a terrible reputation and treat their maids horribly. They were also caught buying fake yelp reviews.

Here's a more convincing copy of theirs from EXEC: http://iamexec.com/house-cleaning/san-francisco http://iamexec.com/house-cleaning/san-francisco vs https://www.homejoy.com/house-cleaning-san-francisco https://www.homejoy.com/house-cleaning-san-francisco mirror: http://i.imgur.com/OAH1tg2.jpg http://i.imgur.com/OAH1tg2.jpg Yelp permanently banned them from advertising for buying reviews, and one of the major deal sites is considering it. And they just continue to be stupid. A fancy, potentially sustainable version of your typical daily deal scam.
