comment I want to sell my company after 1 year and would like to pay long term capital gains tax. Should I go for LLC ro C/S copr?
Thanks Jack. In this case there might be few employees, patents and an up and running website. Since double taxation would be an issue in corporation, should I go LLC route ?

comment Elements of a Startup Business Plan
Thanks for the inputs. Although I am not sure how to show returns. It is so nearly impossible to show how much revenues you are going to make over time.

Agree with Oleg. Consider this . When you want to someone to do SEO, you would ask them how does your site rank. Sites/Content speak louder than marketing pitch

comment Adsense for Wordpresss?
Till date it has been next to nothing from google adsense for me. We have 16k visitors a month and adsense does not even cover server cost , forget about everything else.

comment Should we have a sub domain, a new domain or a different path for new a category?
One issue which might come up when using different domains . Let us assume I have a article or a test which is relevant to both GMAT and GRE. So either I should be copy pasting the contents which might lead to duplicate content problem or modify them and re post.

Michael , I was not aware of the backlinks importance being reduced in site's popularity. But if that is going to happen then it makes sense with new domain. You have another very valid point that is one site takes off , it can be spun off.

You are right Jason. Compete so inaccurate. The unique user count plugin in my wordpress blog does much better job

comment Should we have a sub domain, a new domain or a different path for new a category?
Yes they would get the parent site. But I want to make a different area for SAT contents, GMAT contents. I am assuming that the readers would like get the RSS feed for the category they are interested in.

Very well said Michael. It is difficult to move up in pyramid and that is why they get paid more even though people below them may consider them overheads.

comment Is LLP a good option for software start-up in India?
Thanks for answer. So you suggest if there is no outside investor then one should go for an LLC and if we have investors then can convert to C Corp. Can we give stock options in an LLC to the employees or to business partners ?

comment Hiring sales people as independent contractors
Jason , I am following you on twitter and would appreciate if you could send me a copy of the 2-page agreement. Another question would be where to find the salespeople ? I had been trying to find some on craigslist but without much luck.

comment What are going rates for finders fee?
After reading all this I am a little lost. Agreed that too many companies chasing too little capital but are the entrepreneurs supposed to pay a finder fees ? I went to some VC event and there angels and VC spoke against the finders or so called companies who introduce you to some VC and take a cut. SO is this an acceptable practice ?
