As far as I remember all signs at Atatürk airport are both in English and in Turkish. And there are lots of people who can help you..

there some buses for domestic terminal
when you get on a bus for ankara you will go from bolu way there is a new bolu tunnel which makes the way more closer
when you get off the plane you had better take a taxi to terminal it will be more safety

I did it last September, after passport control you have to walk for 10-15 minutes till you arrive to the domestic airport. There are signs (not all of them in English, they say "yurtiçi havalimanı" or "iç hatlar" I don't remember which) and lots of security people who are willing to help and show the way. The domestic airport is quite a small one and the flight to Ankara is very short.

If you do so, Eyüp is in the golden horn (haliç) area. You can go there by bus from Eminönü or taxi (50 ytl apprx.)

I'm wondering too.
Yani I'm going to switch flights in Istanbul as well, so do they stamp my passport in Istanbul or at my final destination? (Which is Van and that airport is so small I've never seen anything like customs or passport checks there )
