The Internet is the most rapidly growing source of information on almost any subject (Sewak, Wilkin, Bentley, & Smith, 2005). While every day a growing number of companies choose to have their own website, the forms of web advertising are becoming more diverse and the use of blogs and personal websites has helped boost advertising, nowadays the creation of websites and the housing of advertising from outside Websites is something already common for everyone.

Many enterprises have adopted the Internet in the marketing and sales of products and today the web is an important advertising medium (Wu, Wei, & Chen, 2006).
