VoIp stands for Voice over Internet Protocol. It is also referred to as IP Telephony .It is another way of making phone calls ,though the �phone� part is not always present any more ,as you can communicate without a telephone set .VoIP is especially popular with long-distance calls .The main reason for which people are so massively turning to this new technology is the cost .VoIP is said to be cheap ,but most people use it for free .Yes ,if you have a computer with a microphone and speakers ,and a good Internet connection, you can communicate using VoIP for free.
Advertising campaigns ,which are present everywhere on the net ,are contributing a lot towards the popularization of VoIp ,which is not only giving facilities and allowing people to save ,but also bringing in huge income for those who dived early into the new phenomenon.
Does the underlined "which" refer to VoIP?
Does the underined "the new phenomenon" refer to VOIP?
Thanks!

"The new phenomenon" does refer to VOIP.
"which" could refer to VOIP, or to "the popularisation of VOIP", but to be honest it doesn't change the meaning too much either way.
Hope helps,
