What state is best for incorporating a business?
I've seen many companies incorporated in states other than where their headquarters are located. Delaware seems to be a popular business incorporation state. When should a company incorporate in a different state and what states are best?

It does seem that everyone that I have ever spoken to about incorporating a business always recommends incorporating in Delaware. According to start-up business lawyer Ryan Roberts, there are five reasons to pick Delaware if you want to get incorporated. He states that some people pick that state because of legal reasons. One of them being that a judge presides over the business cases instead of a jury. Also, many of the cases are solved before going to court because there is usually a legal precedent that already applies to the dispute in question. Likewise, the state of Delaware has flexible corporation laws.
Other reasons are price and privacy. Delaware is one of the cheapest states in which to get incorporated. The price is $89. As for privacy, the corporation is not required to declare the officer names associated with the company unlike other states.
