About

Hi, I’m Hakan. I’m 30, I live in Istanbul, and I make things for the internet for a living. AuraQuizzes is the corner of it where I get to be a bit silly.

I started the site because I kept taking personality quizzes late at night and kept being annoyed by them. Twenty pages of clicking “next”. A sign-up form right before the result. A result that was two sentences long and could have been about anyone. I figured a quiz should respect the three minutes you give it, so I built the kind I wanted to take myself.

What you’ll find here

Short personality quizzes. Aura colors, aesthetics, seasons, style, the way you love people, that sort of thing. Each one runs on a single page, takes about two minutes, and ends with a result I actually sat down and wrote, not a one-liner.

A few things I stick to:

• No sign-up, ever. You don’t need an account or an email address to see your result.
• Your answers stay with you. The quiz is scored inside your browser. I don’t collect or store what you picked.
• Every result is a good one. There is no “bad” outcome hiding in any quiz here. Nobody needs a website telling them they’re the worst option.
• Written by a person. I write the questions and the results myself, test them on friends, and rewrite the ones that fall flat.

How seriously should you take your result?

About as seriously as a fortune cookie. These quizzes are entertainment. They are not psychological tests and they can’t diagnose anything. If a result makes you smile, or you send it to a friend with “this is so you”, it did its job. There’s more on that in the disclaimer and on the page about how the quizzes work.

Who pays for this

The site is free to use and paid for by ads. I try to keep them out of the way of the quiz itself, because I hate tapping an ad by accident as much as you do.

Say hi
