    Are products purchased for Product Reviews considered a business expense?
    I own an LLC that creates websites. I want to create a site that does product reviews. Can I write off the products I review (tech equipment, game consoles, purses, etc) as business expense?

    Yes, if your website generates income and there is an expectation that a profit will eventually be generated.
