Abstract
The Internet and especially the World Wide Web are among the most remarkable achievements in the history of humankind. Without them, it is impossible to imagine current information services, entertainment and business. Every day more and more ordinary people are getting access to the Web and every one of them is possibly an active builder of the Web. For companies and organizations, a presence on the Web has become something equal to their existence in the modern world as such.
