These tools provide important gains both to the public administration, which is the essential element of public service provision, and to the citizens who are the addressees of the service. Municipalities find the opportunity to respond to the expectations and demands of the people more quickly and appropriately, as well as their close relations with the public, with e-municipality applications. The developments in the field of communication and communication have helped this opportunity to arise. The contents of public services offered by municipalities online through their web addresses are getting richer day by day in this direction. Undoubtedly, the expectations of the citizens in this direction play an important role in this enrichment.

It is aimed to reveal with a content analysis to be carried out over the web addresses of 81 provincial municipalities.

In the application part, the cross-sectional, general survey model, which was carried out in quantitative methodology, is included. While the universe of the study was determined as the official web pages of all provincial municipalities in Turkey, the research was carried out on all 81 provinces without sampling. In the study, the data were collected with the help of the form prepared by the authors based on the literature review and analyzed in the SPSS program. The findings were compiled under the headings of general information on the web pages of municipalities, information on e-municipality, and information on the functionality of municipalities' e-municipality applications.
