Thanks for the update sitemaker.
Its interesting what you said about the IRS allowing all your expenses. I don't know which schedule you report yours on but the problem I ran into with reporting all expenses on schedule C (which was mainly the registrations and renewals of over a thousand domains yearly) is I have relatively small ppc income to offset those expenses and the IRS doesn't want to see continued yearly losses reported on schedule C. I was told I must show a profit at least 2 or 3 years out of every 5 years or I could expect an audit. I'm pretty sure you have much more income from your domain business than I do so you probably don't have this problem.
Since I make most of my profit from domain sales I decided to deduct the bulk of registration expenses on schedule D along with those sales. I use schedule D because I can offset gains from previous stock market losses I carry over from year to year.
I deduct a smaller part of the registration fees from schedule C where I show my ppc income so that I can show a small profit and hopefully avoid an audit.
As I said in my previous post I'm now wandering if the IRS will frown upon my splitting those expenses on two separate schedules. This is a question I apparently will have to pay a qualified CPA to answer......or depending on what he says I may want to get more than one opinion before I file.
