About

Working for brands since 2018.

A digital agency based in Istanbul. From brand identity and websites to content production and visibility inside generative search, one team runs the whole thing.

Who we are

Short answer

What does Galata Media do?

Galata Media is a GEO and corporate website agency that gets brands cited as a source inside generative search engines — ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity.

Galata Media is a digital agency working across brand identity, websites, content production and search visibility. From building a brand’s visual language through to making sure that brand is represented correctly in search results and AI answers, one team runs the whole process.

We were founded in 2018 and have traded as Galata Media since 2022. Alongside Neuros Technology and Nemi we are part of Moz Group, which means that when a project needs real engineering we are working under the same roof as the engineering team.

The team is not reassembled per project: the people who draw a brand’s mark, write its words and build its site work on that project together. We build sites that publish in Turkish, English, German and Arabic — the one you are reading is written in the same four.

Vision and mission

Our mission

To say what a brand does with the same clarity everywhere people look for it.

In a search result, in an AI answer, on a sign or on a business card — what the brand does should come across in one sentence. Our work is to write that sentence, produce the surfaces that carry it, and measure what happens.

Our vision

A search landscape where brands from Türkiye sit inside the answer itself.

Search is turning from a list of links into an answer, and being cited as a source in that answer is what visibility now means. We want the brands we work with inside those answers — accurately, and in their own words.

Company culture

Culture is visible in the work that ships.

Agency culture is not a list on a wall; it is the record of how a piece of work came out. Five points describe how we work.

01
One team, no handovers
The people who draw the mark, write the words and build the site work on the same project. Work is not passed between teams as a file, and the reason behind a decision travels with it.
02
Words before layout
A page is not laid out before it is clear what it says. A page designed around placeholder text gets designed a second time when the real sentences arrive.
03
Every delivery goes through a second pair of eyes
Mobile, accessibility and measurement checks are part of the delivery — not a separate stage, and not a line added to the invoice.
04
We do not build dependency
An identity ships with its guidelines; a site ships as something the client’s own team can run. A brand that decides to change agency leaves with all of its work.
05
Bad news travels the same day
If a date slips we write down why. We change an approach that is not working rather than burying it inside a report.

Join the team

We do not publish a list of open roles. We always read a portfolio.

Our values

Four rules that hold on every project.

We do not start without measuring

We record the current state before a project begins and repeat the same measurement after handover, so progress is read from data rather than argued about.

We publish no number without a source

Every figure on this site is bound to a verifiable primary source. We do not write claims we cannot verify — generative engines skip pages whose claims they cannot confirm.

We apply it to ourselves first

The technical rules we recommend to clients run on galata.media first. The audit tools we publish score our own site against exactly the same criteria.

We do not work from templates

Every site is written from scratch. Boilerplate repeated across hundreds of pages produces no distinguishing signal in search.

Corporate structure

The agency arm of Moz Group.

Galata Media is one of three companies under Moz Group. We share an office, so when a project needs real software development the team is not sourced from outside.
