What is the Tax Directory Project?

Research for the Tax Directory Project was commenced in December, 1998. During the ensuing four months tax related search terms entered by surfers at major search engines were examined to determine what information taxpayers were looking for during tax season. In all, over 360 million search terms were checked. This resulted in a list of nearly 4,000 unique tax related search terms entered by nearly 500,000 web surfers during the 1999 tax season.

There are thousands of web sites that have something to do with tax. However, we observed, that there are were no comprehensive web sites that offer a broad cross section of tax information. From the list of tax related search terms WorldWideWeb Tax began writing this tax directory to answer the tax questions you have.

This Tax Directory was launched on November 1, 1999 for the upcoming tax season. The Tax Directory was rebuilt during 2003 and relaunched on December 1, 2003 for the upcoming tax season.
