The interesting point is that only 30 million of them access the Net from home and over 40 million access it at work. Another 30 million do it from cyber cafes. On an average Net users spend close to 16 hours a week online. This is higher than the average time an Indian viewer spends watching TV, which is 14 hours a week. Online advertising that was virtually non-existent three-four years ago has crossed Rs1,000 crore and the entire advertising industry was around Rs25,000 crore last year. The online ad market is expected to touch Rs 5,000 crore by 2015.” 9

There is a similarity between social-media marketing and WOM advertising.In each case, the unbiased nature of the sender—and other perceptions of his or her credibility—play a greater role in social media than in traditional media.”
