We measured every company in Turkey listed in open map data, 1,786,700 of them, and then crawled every website they claim to have. Only 23.2% turned out to have one that answers.

Open map data credits 684,496 Turkish businesses with a website, which reads as 38.3% of the country. We requested every one of those addresses. 413,777 answered. The rest time out, refuse the connection, or park on an expired domain. The honest national figure is 23.2%: roughly one business in four can be reached on the web at all.
95.3% of listed businesses carry a Facebook reference, against 13.0% for Instagram, 6.9% for X, 6.3% for YouTube, 4.3% for LinkedIn and 0.78% for TikTok. That gap is an artefact of how the underlying place data was assembled rather than a picture of where customers are. That is exactly why the Instagram figure had to be rebuilt from company websites rather than trusted as it came.
Istanbul leads at 53.7% of businesses with a website on record, followed by Ankara at 47.7%. At the other end, Giresun sits at 21.6% and Osmaniye at 22.2%. Both ends of that range should be read against the national 23.2% working-site figure: outside the three largest cities, a reachable company website is the exception, not the norm.
542,323 businesses have no website at all but do publish a phone number. For anyone selling to Turkish SMEs, that is the actual addressable surface, and it is a messaging problem, not a web problem.

This is a map of businesses that are discoverable online, so it undercounts the informal economy and anything that never got listed. It also cannot see a business that runs entirely on Instagram or WhatsApp with no website, which is a common pattern in Turkish retail and food service. Read the website figures as a ceiling on web presence and the social figures as a floor.
