Google AdSense Tax Season Advice

It is that time of the year again, just a few more days until Tax Day in America. That reminds me, I need to call my accountant and see the status of my returns...

In any event, this is typically when AdSense publishers try to come up with a list of what they can deduct from their AdSense earnings. Keep in mind, I am not an accountant, so any advice here must be run by someone who is a professional in this area.

A WebmasterWorld thread has a list of items you may be able to deduct. I have complied some of the items into this bulleted list below:

  • Internet Connections
  • Hosting Fees
  • Tax preparation fees
  • Bank fees
  • Computer Costs
  • Forum Membership Fees (i.e. WebmasterWorld)
  • Conference Fees (hotel, food, travel and event - careful with this)
  • Lunches & Dinners for Business
  • Office Furniture & Supplies
  • Ads & Site Promos
  • Health Insurance
  • Telephone
  • Postage
  • etc

You can find our coverage of this from two years ago at Tax Deductions For Google AdSense: It's Tax Season.
