Accounting 4 Webmasters?

[psyman5]

Does anyone have a good accountant? I have left my FT job, and I will be depending on my website and linklist for major financial support. However, I think I would do better to have someone assist in helping me make this a real business. All this as regular cash income could be trouble in the future! I live in the Midwest, USA, so please assist if you can!

Your state's chapter of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants should have a directory. If the boy has CPA after his name, you should be in good hands

Appreciate it! Did not know if there was anyone specializing in this end of the business before I used regular instate CPA.

Business is business - it's not like there's different tax forms for webmasters :)

You should get a book keeper to help you with day to day stuff as it's much cheaper, then get a really good accountant to prepare your taxes

I agree with the others about finding a good CPA. They will charge you, but it will more than likely pay for itself. I remember when I first started, I wasn't aware of the filing requirements as they related to quarterly estimated payments and took a beating. Not to mention all the deductions that I didn't claim...
