İlyas Saltay Samsun, Türkiye
I turn digital needs into the right team and solution.
Digital marketer and project lead
I clarify what each client needs, connect them with the right specialist partners, and coordinate communication and delivery. I work alongside my own team to bring digital marketing, web and software projects to life.

What I do
The work falls into four areas, and most of the time they are simply different layers of the same job: if I build the site I bring up its server too, and if I wrote the software I carry its maintenance as well.
Corporate web systems
Company sites, product catalogues and structures that the client edits through their own admin panel. From heavy industry to law firms, built to be found in search and to behave properly on a phone.
Custom software and products
Where off-the-shelf software does not fit, I write to the shape of the business: restaurant management, quotation tools, service tracking. Some of it runs on the desktop, some in the browser.
Servers and infrastructure
Domains, server setup, corporate email, security headers and the speed side of things. When a system has to move to another server, I move it myself and keep the downtime to a minimum.
Maintenance, rebuilds and measurement
Taking over a site built years ago, rebuilding it, putting its backups in order, measuring where it stands in search and improving it. Shipping is half the job; keeping it standing is the other half.
For corporate proposals and client enquiries, contact me directly.

My channel
I started a channel where I talk through the digital problems business owners keep running into, without turning it into a sales pitch. The videos are in Turkish.
I clarify client needs, bring the right specialists together across digital marketing, web and software, and coordinate project communication and delivery with my own team.

Digital marketing, the right partners and strong teams
I clarify client needs, connect clients with the right specialist partners and coordinate communication across everyone involved. I plan and deliver projects with my own team, bringing additional specialists into the work when needed. AI tools can support the workflow; decisions, quality review and accountability stay with the people doing the work.
Based in Samsun, working from here
Samsun is my hometown; it is where I live and work. I learned software outside any curriculum — on my own curiosity and on the job.
The way I work is not tied to a place: if a client needs me on site I go, if not I run the same work from Samsun. The server side has never asked me where I am.
Let's talk about the work
A new site, a rebuild of an existing system, or something you are stuck on at the server level — write to me and I will get back to you the same day.
