I could be wrong but I think you’ll want to consider changing the name. The parent post is on point, but companies won’t be attracted by the “cheap food” moniker. Even “budget food” is more palatable for a restaurant to associate with.

This was our biggest concern as well. I already talked to few owners and negative connotation was making them reluctant to be on the site.. We thought about different name like "under10" "dimedrop" "Fooglemap" but none of them stuck. (We did like the name Fooglemap, but similarity to Google map will create risk of cease and decease letter if it ever becomes major.. so decided not to do it.)

Still torn on name change.. We want cool / memorable name.

May I suggest MealOnADime ? Dine n' Save Find your meal

I'd say to avoid the under 10 branding because of inflation.

Meal on a dime sounds good, checking namecheap right now =)

valuefoodie

greatmealdeal (or permutations)

You can also make the chimpmunk into your foodie mascot for branding.

valuefoodie sounds good!

Munch4Less.

FoodBuddy

LunchBuddy

This one is good; however I wonder if GasBuddy would have an issue with it.. otherwise I think it rings nice.

Yes, I like this name too. But they will get us if we go major.

I liked Fooglemap (Googlemap + Food) and Slickmeals (like slickdeals) all very dangerous down the road if we ever become major. They will send cease and decease letter through their lawyer

fwiw, I like cheapfoodmap. I like cheap food. Already registered and posted a spot. The site is fun and slick. Good work!

Thank you! I like the name too, but it has some negative connotation so businesses might not like them.. but thats the part I like about the name.

The name is awesome and those businesses who balk at the word are silly. It's an honor to be able to nourish someone who needs a delicious and affordable meal. They should be proud to be able to offer this blessing to the community.

Thank you, that is the plan!

I like <3

FroogalMap?

Cool idea. I hope this helps people.

I hope so too, Google goes after any name that remind people of their name with similar service.. so Froogal / Foogle map was off the table.. but I love the name, I wish I can use it T-T

> cease and decease letter

I don’t know if it was an accident or a pun, but I love it.

FoodGaloreMap. Focuses on the abundance without the negative miser association. Or FoodMiser works too, just lean into it as a beautiful brand.

Because good and plentiful food for cheap is abundance, and good food for relatively cheap is miser's dream.

The word "cheap" while by definition means low quality is used in place of "inexpensive" most of the time in casual language, at least in the United States, and understood to mean low cost not low quality. I for one read the URL to mean inexpensive. Not that there aren't more appropriate URLs.

Thank you! I like the name too, but it has slight negative connotation so businesses might not like them.. but thats the part I like about the it

The problem isn't the word cheap, it's just that'd you've attached it to the food, and not the diner.
