The existence of the Internet and World Wide Web has opened new chapter for companies to compete and thrive, especially SMEs. The Internet can make a very small company look larger than it is. The physical size and location of companies are no longer major characteristics to their success when doing business online. The purpose with this study was to investigate the factors that contribute to the intention to adopt website as a marketing communication tool. To reach the purpose, the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) was used among 280 managers/owners of SMEs in Kedah.
