When I opened my blog cokgezendam.com in 2014, the first days were a complete disappointment.. Not even my friends. If I had a birthday, more people would come, I was sorry for my work.. Afterwards, when I worked tirelessly and persevered in a job, I saw that the result started to come.. As a matter of fact, I reached very serious numbers over time.. Thanks to my blog, I won various awards and even served as a jury in TRT.. In the intervening 3 years, my blog has become one of the important sources on the most sought-after holiday destinations in Turkey.
Today, it has reached a certain size. I wanted to share where people researched the most.. A total of 1.2 million unique visitors visited my blog in 2017.

Most Searched Holiday Places and Articles
When I look at the most searched articles on my blog, I see that people generally read more about the places they can access most easily.. Often times, a place close to Istanbul can get much more attention than a dream city of the Far East.. Here are the articles that people are most curious about and read on my blog in 2017:
Galata Tower
Someone who was born and raised in Istanbul After writing on my blog, I learned that this precious tower of Istanbul, which I went to the top of for the first time 2 years ago, was so curious.. Every day hundreds of people visit my blog to learn about Galata Tower. Galata Tower, one of the oldest and most beautiful towers of Istanbul, was built by the Byzantine Emperor Anastasius Oilosuz in 528 as a lighthouse made of wood.. In 1348, it was made of masonry stone by the Genoese with the name Christea Turris. If you want to get more detailed information about Galata Tower, you can reach my blog post from the link below.

Thassos Island
<
Before most people in Turkey knew much, my dear journalist friend Eren Güler said that I discovered an island like paradise in Greece, close to Istanbul, when I asked if I should write it on your blog, of course I did I said. Then what happened. In an instant, the writing exploded and Thassos Island (Thasos or Thasos in another form) suddenly became the focus of attention of the Turks.. They started beating those who did not go to the island.. This article by Eren Güler became one of the pioneering articles in which my blog jumped the threshold and reached serious traffic.. It kind of became one of the cornerstones of The Man Who Traveled Too Much.. Then I went and wrote a couple more articles.. You can read all my Thassos articles from the links below.

Budapest
When I was a journalist years ago, we had a roadshow from Istanbul to Budapest with Porsche Panamera Diesels.. It was one of the most interesting experiences of my life.. My stay in Budapest was only for one night, but in that time I fell in love with the city and promised to come again.. Anyway, in 2016, I bought a ticket to Budapest for New Year’s Eve and managed to reach the city despite a 10-hour delay.. Then I liked this city more and went again in September of the same year.. I have written many different articles about the capital of Hungary, which I visited again in 2017 and this time in May.. Many of my readers print your articles and visit the city, thank you very much.. Receiving these messages makes one really happy.. Here are all my articles about Budapest:

Edirne
Especially for those living in Istanbul Edirne ranks first in the list of places to visit at the weekend. The city, which was also one of the capitals of the Ottoman Empire, is worth seeing with its historical structures and legendary tastes.. On top of that, like a cillop, you can reach the city with a journey of about 2 and a half hours from the highway.. Ideal for a trip in the morning go, go, eat, come back in the evening format.. For those who haven’t been to this beautiful city before, I recommend them to take a look at my blog post.
Gökçetepe
The biggest need of those living in Istanbul and its surroundings, especially in summer, is close places with beautiful beaches that can be visited by car at the weekend.. One of the places that best meets this need is the Gulf of Saros and its surroundings.. There are many beautiful villages here. Some of these villages are connected to Edirne’s Keşan and some to Çanakkale’s Gelibolu district. Gökçetepe, a district of Edirne’s Keşan district, was one of the most curious articles this year.. Thanks to my esteemed guest writer, Eren Güler, who brought this place to my blog.. In addition to the Gökçetepe article, you can also read the article about the Güneyli Village of Çanakkale, which attracts great attention in the vicinity.
