ntidesign.com's NT special is an exact match of ReadyHosting's $99 plan! And both their FAQ's match each other word for word. Features listed are word for word. What's going on here? Can anyone explain??

There networks are different and their whois is differnet. Most likely they are different companies, but you never know.

They are different. ReadyHosting.com offers the service and servers and everything else. ntidesign.com is just a reseller. They purchased the hosting service from ReadyHosting.com and offer their service to their own customers. Read ReadyHosting.com's website and you'll see how this is done. I'd stay away from ReadyHosting.com since I now host with them but won't be by the end of next week. Terrible customer service along with their servers going down within a week of me signing up.

The technical term for such a phenomenon is plagiarism.

This is one of the first year classes (PLAG 101) at the Tacid Institute for Copyright Infringement. Guadalupe Milk is the instructor.

Most hosting companies allow the resellers to copy their site.

Don't they realize how odd that is going to look when people start comparing hosting companies and (as above) realize that the sites are identical, down to the words in the FAQ's?

And, that information that is relevant to a hosting company, isn't necessarily correct for a reseller, especially ownership of networks and facilities?

But then that gets all confusing and you have to do work like all that support stuff for your customers (coughcoughTACIDcough)
