Summary

New flagship blog post (~1,200 words) explaining the core concept behind the calculator: why W-2 income increases the value of LLC write-offs.

This directly addresses the #1 user confusion — people don't understand why their day job salary affects their LLC deductions.

Content

  • The misconception (W-2 and LLC feel separate)
  • Combined taxation on one Form 1040 (with IRS link)
  • Progressive brackets explained (full 2025 bracket table)
  • Why salary determines write-off discount (concrete $2,000 laptop example)
  • Comparison table: same expense at 5 different salary levels ($0–$200K)
  • When the effect caps out (37% bracket, SS wage base)
  • Common LLC write-offs list
  • CTA → write-off calculator

5 external authority links (IRS.gov, SSA.gov). Targets keywords: "LLC write-off", "W-2 and LLC taxes", "tax write-off calculator".

Test plan

  • Visit /blog — new post should appear first in the list
  • Visit /blog/why-w2-job-makes-llc-writeoffs-worth-more — verify content renders
  • Verify tables render correctly (remark-gfm)
  • Verify external links work (IRS, SSA)
  • Verify CTA button links to write-off calculator
  • Check mobile layout

New ~1,200 word post that explains the core concept: W-2 salary and
LLC profit are taxed together, salary fills lower brackets, so LLC
write-offs save at the higher marginal rate. Includes bracket table,
comparison at 5 salary levels, IRS/SSA authority links, and common
write-offs list. Positioned first in blog list as the flagship
explainer piece.
