Before we get to internet marketing, let’s talk about the “Stupid Tax”. According to the Urban Dictionary, it’s:
The cost associated with engaging in any state sanctioned form of long odds gambling, i.e. playing the lottery.

List Price: $8.99
In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. Long ago the districts waged war on the Capitol and were defeated. As part of the surrender terms, each district agreed to send one boy and one girl to appear in an annual televised event called, "The Hunger Games," a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the Games. The terrain, rules, and level of audience participation may change but one thing is constant: kill or be killed.

A Legally Established Business
Standard Disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer, and nothing here should be considered legal advice.
There are tax and asset protection benefits to running your business through a limited liability company or corporation (in most cases, an LLC is probably a good choice). Running an informally organized business with partners can expose you to serious risk.
Hiring an attorney to do the paperwork to set up your company can cost in the neighborhood of $400. Another option is to order the documents online. This costs less, but you'll have to complete and files the documents yourself. Instructions for doing so are included with the package linked to above.
Run all of your business' money through accounts (bank, PayPal, credit card) used only for business. I find it extremely convenient to have my personal and business bank accounts at the same bank, because I can pay myself easily without leaving home by going to the bank's website and transferring money between accounts. If you're interested in doing this, check with your bank to be sure that you'll have access to both accounts under the same login before setting up the account.
