Looking for “special contact forms for mobiles”

We see much lower conversion rates on our websites contact and reservations forms from visitors using mobile devices ( ipad, iphone, android phones, and other smartphones ) ... so I was googleing around to see what was out there. What I'd really like is a way for the mobile phone / device to auto fill the users basic info ( name, phone, address, ) and then have a simple way to "checkout" and submit credit card details already associated with that phone ( android account, itunes account, etc ). http://www.jotform.com has some som mobile form templates that are the right width so they fit onto mobile screens. https://www.formsite.com/ has some basic forms that just look like simple forms but don't [...]

Facebook checkout would be a game changer

I still think FaceBook should get into the virtual wallet financial territory... everybody trusts them with everything already... why not trust them with your finances and make it super easy to buy stuff everywhere on the Internet. No filling out shipping information, no filling out credit card information, no filling out your name, no filling out the people you're traveling with, no filling out anything. If you're logged in the FaceBook it means you can check out, reserve, and purchase whatever product or service or ticket or whatever you're buying with just a couple clicks. PayPal is already doing this for 81 million people worldwide however the adoption of their simplified checkout is not nearly as high so you run [...]

forms optimized for ipad checkout and reservations

I'm looking for a way to make our website much more mobile friendly...in particular the ipad and iphone.... I just googled for "forms optimized for ipad checkout and reservations" and nothing was helpful in the top ten.... so I googled for " ipad optimized form " .. which is a little more specific... http://www.addcolours.com/blog/coding/javascript-jquery-coding/jquery-touch-optimized-framework-for-iphone-ipad-android.html This seems to help make mobile sites using jquery mobile... not what I want but interesting... then I found http://brandmini.com/ which appears to be a company/technology/service that helps you sell your products more easily on mobiles and social networks... also not what I wanted. then I googled for "ipad optimized checkout"... and discovered that PayPal has a mobile optimized express checkout option... this could be what [...]

facebook ad negative demographics

In Google ad words you can add "negative keywords" to you or campaigns... I've been experimenting with FaceBook advertising recently and wanted to show advertisements to everyone in the United States except certain people within a certain ZIP code... so I started googling for terms like : facebook ad prevent showing to certain demographics facebook ad prevent facebook ad targeting negative zip codes facebook ad negative demographics I was not able to find any good content about it and I could not find a way to do it within FaceBook so we set it up using a roundabout way within FaceBook. We set up the campaign to run in every state but our own state then we set up another [...]
