Future Searches: Your Contact of SEO and Search Marketing for Turkey
As a result of a sudden opportunity, I am moving to Turkey soon. By the end of July, Future Searches will be operating from Ankara, Turkey. I will be exploring Turkey search market closely and helping companies to show off in the first pages of search engines result pages.

Hi, I’m a Software Engineer working for a company doing SEM.
I think it’s nice your exploring the SEM market in Turkey, we did that in 2006, but the market was too small back then.
Can you give me some advise for linkbuilding in Turkey? I don’t know where to start…
Hi Tuncay, I believe submitting your site to all available directories in Turkey under the related category would be a good starting point. There are also other link building channels over the internet that you need to focus according to the vertical you are targeting.
I am available to increase the success of your SEO and SEM campaigns. Thanks.
