I used to be a retail manager and we were always told never to use the word cheap to our products because it has a double meaning.
Cheap could mean shoddy or badly made.

So we agreed we would always use the words of low cost or give a direct comparison of prices to the competitor, so they could see how “cheap” the product is.

However on the internet you need to convert your site and your words to how your customers will find you and the word cheap, cheapest and cheaper are certainly widley used.

It is a challenge

I agree but what are we to do? It’s not likely to change anytime soon. I would consider it good if Google would get rid of MFA sites.

When giving training materials and guidelines than ads should not be there. There is a site for Open Source ERP Training (ERP software is enterprise resource planning).
Open Source ERP training. You can surely follow their model for the same .

I know what you mean, the word cheap has negative connotations. I lean toward affordable, it is an ok word.

I agree with you Shell in respect of how they are blending their ads.

An authority site should be more responsible, forthright, accountable, amenable, amendable, answerable, culpable, dependable, levelheaded, liable, mature, reliable, reputable, sensible, solvent, and trustworthy.
