> If you spent $1,000 on servers and your website made $10,000, then you’ll only pay taxes on the $9,000 in profit.

I wonder if this is correct. Many places require you to deprecate assets such as computers over many years, so the deductions are not all taken out of your profit the year you buy them.

Sounds like this article is conflating the legalities of setting up a business with the accounting of operating one, two different things.
