Yes, any expenses that are business related are deductible regardless whether your business ‘exists’ only online. The internet-related expenses you mentioned definitely are, as well as any legal or registration fees (ie, dba, trademark, servicemark fees) that you might incur in your state, office supplies, etc.
Also you can write off the business percentage of your computer, even if it’s not new…you’re converting it to some business use.
