How to find small hotels / cheap rooms in the French Alps in August
score:4
It's a little labor-intensive but each French département (a low-level district or province-like subdivision of the country) will have a tourism website that should be pretty exhaustive. On your itinerary those are:
- Haute-Savoie
- Savoie (rather confusing website, I think it covers Haute-Savoie too)
- Isère
- Alpes-de-Haute-Provence
- Alpes-Maritimes
If you know roughly where you may want to stop, you could also look up the tourist office of that specific village or town (without getting too deep in the administrative details nearly all towns would have one, typically for a group of municipalities). Those will also list all types of accommodations.
You can also check AirBnB and Abritel but I suspect that in a holiday area in the high season, most places will have a minimum number of nights to accept a booking.

While I agree with the first posted answer, (local tourist information) I myself often look on one of the big hotel booking sites.
You may not find some of the smaller places but they often have a good spread from hostels and b&b's to good hotels.
One of those sites is booking dot com but there are others as well.
