This is from feedback from our CUTGroup test of Foodborne Chicago. Testers were hesitant to click because they were not familiar with smartchicagoapps.org. By changing the URL to www.foodbornechicago.org this will be aligned with the name of the site.

@srobbin - The URL already exists in the GoDaddy and can be configured with the same credentials.

@smarziano In order to do this, we'll need to buy an SSL certificate for foodbornechicago.org, so that we can keep the site secured. Assuming we'll just need www.foodbornechicago.org and foodbornechicago.org, we can buy the regular certificate instead of the wildcard:

Done.

Note: I had to create a new Heroku app to handle the old https://foodborne.smartchicagoapps.org redirect, since it's HTTPS. At some point, when Google, etc are no longer linking to the old site, we can shut it down.
