Hello,

I am curious, how much does rackshack own? I seem to visit so many sites now with their big red sky scrapper ad!!!

Confirmed:
RackShack.net <= hehe, well doh!
WebHostingTalk.com
HostingTech.com
HostBuzz.com
Yaxay.com
FindWebNetwork.com
FindWebspace.com
FindWebServers.com
WebHostingRadio.com

Unconfirmed:
ispcheck.com <= its linked from various sites owned by rackshack and some sales reps work for both webhostingtalk.com and ispcheck.

Anyone know any more??? Or can confirm the ispcheck.com?

Admin, Domain admin@whnetwork.com

I heard they purchased that many months ago. There was a thread around here somewhere.

Im not researching them at all... just curious..

Yeah yaxay.com was purchased a few months back with some others but what suprised me was the ispcheck.com one. I never new about that and when investigated was shocked to say the least...

These sites are very important parts of the hosting industry and for them to be owned by just one company is amazing.

I guess they are preparing their future and showing there commitment to the industry!!!

If they were listed on the share market I would buy as many shares as pos. :D

Personally In think its a bad sign..

Just imagine one company owning the majority of the communities/Findhosting online sites...

Not going to be bias with there adds on the top?
