Abstract: As Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) evolve, we have started to feel their significant impact on our professional lives. Recent corporate scandals in developed economies have also underscored the importance of adopting appropriate corporate governance practices. This study aims to explore web site design and content features of Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE) listed firms. While our analysis has revealed that the utilization of design features and the type and extent of the corporate information content do not differ much among the studied industries, we found some statistical differences based on Corporate Governance Ratings (CGRs). Turkish firms seem to be in their early stages of using ICTs in corporate governance practices.
