Website

At erkekse.com, which we launched in 2016 as co-founders, I carefully designed the content management and platform architecture. By customizing the WordPress-based infrastructure, we built a portal serving 50,000+ monthly visitors across fashion, grooming, and health topics. By defining and executing SEO-focused content strategies, we grew organic traffic by 200% in the first year. By managing both the editorial processes and the technical infrastructure, I continually maintained the platform’s scalability and publishing quality.
