Advertising is a form, either written or orally, that attempts to sell something whether it is an product or particular view. Advertising takes the form of pamphlets, radio, television, Internet and much more. A common misunderstanding is that advertising differs from marketing, a business practice unto itself.
Advertising and Commercialism
Advertising is associated with commercialism, but both concepts are far different. Commercialism is the domination of a product into society.
Billboard Advertising
Billboard advertising is one of the oldest forms of advertising. Some billboards are now electronic and advertise more than one company.

What is Advertised
Everything is advertised, so long as it serves the purpose of furthering sales, ideas or views.
