    If I wanted to have an Iphone application made for my website, how much money should I plan on dishing out? I know this is fairly expensive, but I think it is worth it in the long run.

    It depends on the complexity of the ad. What do you want the app to do?

    1. why would they download the application if thats all it does?
    2. just the application fee is 99$, and doesn't garuntee that someone will look at the application, though, if this is all it does, you have a snowball chance in hell to get in (this doesn't include the fact you'll pay a developer to build the application)

    From what you described, it should not be expensive. I would say $2000 or less. Because all you need is a form, I bet you already have the logo and graphic. You may also want an Android app made as Android is taking larger and larger market share of smartphone. You can contact me.

    I have the Xsource code for mail chimp, works with mail chimp, let me know if your interested, in that.

    You can have code generated on Odesk and other freelancer sites, for around a couple hundred bucks, not much to it,

    You expect people to find and install an app that does nothing but get their information and send it you? That's all it does? Why would anyone do that? What would anyone get out of it? It's doesn't do anything.

    I think you are better off putting the form on your website. You've got a better chance of people finding your website than finding an app that can't even be categorized because it has no functionality.
