Web design company on the Anadolu Yakası: Face-to-face work across 14 districts from our Maltepe office

The Bosphorus, Black Sea and islands: Üsküdar, Beykoz, Şile and Adalar

In these four districts, the mode of transportation determines meeting plans: Üsküdar is a hub where rail routes intersect, Beykoz and Şile are mostly reached by road, and Adalar can only be reached by sea. In Üsküdar, the Marmaray station and the first M5 stop meet at the same location; the office towers of Altunizade and the neighborhood shops along the Bosphorus require two different website styles.

In Beykoz, Kavacık, at this side’s end of the FSM Bridge, is an office district with business centers; Polonezköy in the district’s north stands out for its guesthouses, restaurants and weekend visitors. Şile contains the riverside guesthouses of Ağva and workshops weaving Şile cloth, Istanbul’s first geographically indicated product. In Adalar, five of the nine islands are inhabited, and Şehir Hatları operates a route from Maltepe pier to Kınalıada, Burgazada, Heybeliada and Büyükada; reaching the islands from the office does not require crossing to the opposite shore.

For tourism businesses in this group, the website must clearly show seasonal opening hours, the reservation method and directions from the pier or parking area to the premises. For projects in Şile and Adalar, the process is mostly online; if an on-site meeting is needed, the visit is planned before the season begins.

How meetings are planned: At the office, at the business or online

The meeting location is chosen according to whether the work requires seeing the premises. All three options start the same process; only the format of the first meeting differs:

• At the Gülsuyu office: Suitable for work where the page list and copy will be developed at a desk and the premises themselves will not be presented on the website. Meetings take place by appointment between 09:00 and 21:00.
• At the business’s own premises: Preferred when a store, workshop, clinic or production area will be displayed on the website; products, signage and the layout of the premises are viewed on site.
• Online: Suitable for clearly scoped work, distant locations such as Şile and Adalar, or teams with busy schedules; the draft is reviewed through screen sharing and approvals are obtained in writing.

Whichever format is chosen for a web design meeting on the Anadolu Yakası, bringing a few pieces of information shortens the discussion: a list of services or product categories, districts and neighborhoods served, a few example websites you like, the logo file if available, and the name under which the existing domain is registered. If the copy is not ready, the page framework is developed together during the first meeting using this information.

How should a website for a business serving multiple districts be structured?

For a business serving multiple districts, the safest structure is to list service areas clearly on a single page and create separate pages only for districts with genuinely different information. This question frequently arises for businesses visiting customers, such as moving companies, plumbers or air conditioning services.

Google’s spam policies give pages that lead to the same destination and differ only by region or city name as examples under ‘doorway abuse.’ Duplicate pages with only the district name changed tell visitors nothing new and also carry this risk. A separate district page becomes meaningful when there is a branch or warehouse in that district, a district-specific transportation or service condition, or photographs of completed work in that area that can be shown.

A similar principle applies to Maps. The Google Business Profile service area help page asks businesses that do not receive customers at their address to remove that address from their profile and define the areas they serve; up to 20 service areas can be added. All 14 districts of the Anadolu Yakası fit within this limit. The area list on the website is kept consistent with the areas in the profile; profile and Maps work is also planned within the scope of local SEO services.

Examples of completed websites from the Anadolu Yakası

Seven web design projects on the Anadolu Yakası belong to businesses in Maltepe, Pendik and Kadıköy, and each illustrates a different website function:

• Kaplan Kebap (Maltepe): A restaurant website with a catering inquiry form, where reservations and orders are taken through different telephone numbers.
• Favorit Nakliyat (Maltepe): A website for a company providing transportation throughout Istanbul, with service pages and district-specific residential moving pages.
• Finans Zone (Maltepe): A corporate website with preliminary analysis and application forms for a company brokering trade credit and surety insurance.
• Varol Lighting (Pendik): A website for an LED lighting manufacturer containing a Turkish and English product catalog, technical tables and a PDF catalog.
• Aeroscent (Pendik): A service website for a corporate scent design company, directing visitors toward a free demonstration request.
• Airpool Havuz (Pendik): A promotional website for a pool construction and maintenance company, with a project gallery and a separate quotation page.
• Başarır Aksoy (Kadıköy, Suadiye): A personal brand website with a property submission form for a real estate consultant working in Kadıköy, Üsküdar and Beykoz.

Project pages do not provide visitor or sales figures. Work in other industries is listed on the references page. Reviews from businesses we have worked with are publicly available on Google Business Profile; the profile has a 5.0 rating from 217 reviews.

Do web design prices on the Anadolu Yakası vary by district?

No, the district does not affect the price; the number of pages, requested modules, language options and how much content is ready determine the amount. A single-page website starts at 12,000 TL; this figure is 15,000 TL for a multipage corporate structure and 24,000 TL for an e-commerce website with a cart and payment step. An itemized breakdown is available on the web design prices page, while an approximate amount based on your requirements can be viewed using the website price calculator.

Every delivered website comes with mobile compatibility, an SSL certificate and basic SEO foundations; the domain and hosting are registered in the business’s name. For those who want to delegate updates and backups, maintenance costs 500–2,000 TL per month and is optional.

Search visibility and advertising are separate monthly services. Monthly SEO work starts at 9,000 TL; Google Ads management, a separate service, also starts at 9,000 TL per month. No discount applies when both are purchased together; advertising spend is paid to Google from the business’s own account. The factors that affect these fees are explained on the SEO prices and Google Ads prices pages.

From the first message to launch: Steps in a project on the Anadolu Yakası

If the copy and visuals for a corporate website are complete, the work is finished in an average of 5–7 business days; for projects adding a cart, online payment or reservations, the schedule is specified separately in the proposal. The process follows this order:

1. First message: The district, industry, planned pages and a link to the current website, if any, are shared through WhatsApp or telephone.
2. Preliminary assessment and proposal: The assessment is free; the list of work, the fee and the delivery date are shared in writing the same day.
3. Choosing the meeting location: An office, business premises or online meeting is agreed according to the group and the nature of the work.
4. Domain, hosting and draft: Accounts are opened in the business’s name; a homepage draft is submitted for approval together with its phone view.
5. Content placement and testing: Pages are completed; forms, call and WhatsApp buttons, and different screen sizes are checked.
6. Launch and administration panel training: The website goes live on the business’s domain; adding content and changing images are practiced together on a sample page.

Late content is the most common cause of a delayed launch date; if the service details, contact information and a few photographs arrive early, the date in the proposal is maintained.
