It doesn't matter where you incorporate... you pay taxes where you operate.

Moreover, the bigger deal, on a state by state basis, is personal income tax.

California is about 10%, and they have a $1000/year franchise tax to run a business.

Nevada has no state income tax and no franchise tax.

You do need to pay $200 for a business license and appoint a registered agent. It looks like the going rate for one of those is $50/mo.
