News : How much does a Romanian freelancer keep from 100 EUR AdSense revenue?

How much does a Romanian freelancer keep from 100 EUR AdSense revenue?

There are two taxes involved:
- 30% withheld in the United States (no treaty reduction for AdSense), not YouTube where is 10%
- 10% income tax in Romania, applied only to the money actually received
Because there is no other income:
- No CASS (health contribution)
- No CAS (pension contribution)
Step-by-step for 100 EUR example:
- Gross AdSense revenue: 100 EUR
- US withholding: 30% of 100 EUR = 30 EUR
- Amount received in bank account: 100 EUR - 30 EUR = 70 EUR
- Romanian income tax: 10% of 70 EUR = 7 EUR
- Final net amount kept: 70 EUR - 7 EUR = 63 EUR
Summary:
- Gross: 100 EUR
- US tax (30%): -30 EUR
- Received: 70 EUR
- Romanian tax (10%): -7 EUR
- Net kept by freelancer in Romania: 63 EUR

This does NOT mean AdSense is a bad business in general.

AdSense becomes profitable when:
- you have high traffic
- you have consistent monthly revenue
- you earn hundreds or thousands of euros per month
At 100 EUR, the taxes look huge.
At 1,000 EUR, you already keep around 630 EUR, which is a completely different situation.

To earn 1,000 EUR per month with AdSense, you need:

100,000 – 500,000 pageviews per month (depending on RPM)
CTR between 0.5% and 2%
RPM between 3 and 10 EUR
real and consistent traffic
high‑quality content

News : Inkscape supports German petition to recognize Open Source volunteers

The Inkscape project has joined the group of supporting organizations for the German petition to recognize open source work as volunteering for the common good ("Ehrenamt"). Despite the petition being local to Germany, we believe that strengthening the position of open source contributors there will be beneficial to the open source community as a whole.
