About us
Who writes Izmir Ders, how it is paid for, and what we will not do.
Who runs this site
Izmir Ders is a small editorial desk writing about gold trading for readers in Turkey. We publish calculators, price reference and plain-language guides — and we review the brokers a reader in Turkey can actually open an account with.
We are not a broker, not a bank and not a licensed adviser. We do not hold client money, we do not place trades, and nothing here is a personal recommendation to buy or sell.
How the site pays for itself
Some links to brokers are affiliate links: if you open an account through one, the broker may pay us. That is the whole of our revenue, and it is why the next section exists.
A broker paying us does not buy a rating, a ranking position or the removal of a problem. Where a broker is weak for a reader in this country, we say so on the same page that links to it.
What we do not do
We do not publish invented author credentials, fake awards or stock-photo “experts”. Where a page is written by the desk rather than a named person, it says the desk.
We do not quote a XAU/USD price as a dealable price. The numbers in our tools are worked examples; your broker's own quote is the only one you can trade on.
