DealGator, a Daily Deal Aggregator, Makes Finding Daily Deals at Local Businesses Easy for Floridians

BOSTON, Jan. 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- DealGator, a website that takes the work out of finding and managing local daily deals from sites like Groupon and LivingSocial, has launched in Fort Lauderdale, Jacksonville, Miami, Orlando, and Tampa. DealGator collects all the daily deals for each city in one place.  It provides easy-to-use tools for advanced filtering of deals based on personal preferences and for keeping track of coupons acquired from any deal site.

Daily deal sites use the power of group buying to offer deep discounts on goods and services from local businesses. The success of sites like Groupon has inspired many new daily deal startups. Most cities now have 15 to 30 sites offering new deals each day.

"We're big fans of daily deal sites, but it was too much work to check them all and keep track of coupons from different places.  We sometimes forgot to use our coupons before they expired," said Casey Rankin, co-founder of DealGator.  "We couldn't find any tools that helped with these problems, so we decided to create one."

DealGator collects the deals from all the sites and organizes them into one personalized list. Each deal listing includes a business review from Yelp to help avoid unpopular businesses. The daily list is available to view on the DealGator.com website, in a daily email, or through Twitter.  Members can easily customize their listing to avoid deals they aren't interested or are too far away from their home.

DealGator also lets people keep track of all their coupons from multiple sites. Members can instantly add coupons to their list and setup email reminders so they won't forget to use them. They can also attach printable coupons.
