Türkiye Vibe — Travel Guides in Four Languages
An independent travel publication helping visitors plan trips to Turkey, starting with Antalya, in English, German, Russian and Polish.
Project Architecture & Case Study
The Challenge & Scope
International visitors needed to find practical Antalya transport, accommodation and itinerary information in their own language. Equivalent articles also needed consistent language links and search metadata.
Technical Architecture & Solution
I built a static Astro publishing workflow using Markdown and TypeScript validation. English, German, Russian and Polish URLs have language sitemaps, canonicals and reciprocal hreflang links. Articles include related guides, section navigation and source/update information.
Results & Key Deliverables
The publication launched with 88 topics and 352 article pages across four languages. It provides a working example of multilingual publishing and static SEO infrastructure. Page counts are not presented as indexed URLs, customer acquisition or revenue outcomes.
About the Project
A four-language travel guide I built with Astro and TypeScript, generating static HTML from Markdown content. Its 88 Antalya-focused topics cover transport, areas to stay, itineraries, beaches and practical visitor questions. Each language has its own URLs, reciprocal hreflang links, canonical URLs and language-specific sitemaps. The publication is live; traffic and commercial outcomes are still being measured at an early stage.
Architected, designed, and engineered entirely by Ahmet Mert Yiğitbaşı.
