The Alyne Group digital marketing blog carries short posts on work in progress: something that broke and what fixed it, a change on a platform we support, or a pattern showing up across several accounts. Longer, process-level writing lives in the guides rather than here.
A post here is short because the thing it describes is small: one fix, one change, one pattern. That is a deliberate split rather than an accident of length.
If you are trying to run a whole process, a post will frustrate you. Here is which format actually answers which question.
Posts: Something Specific
01
One problem and what it turned out to be. Written while it is fresh, which is why they are short and why they occasionally date faster than the guides do.
Guides: A Whole Process
02
Start to finish, including the decisions it turns on and the order to make them in. Written after running a process enough times to know where it goes wrong.
Case Studies: A Finished Engagement
03
What a completed piece of work produced, reporting only the figures the client cleared. The closest thing to a reference you can read without a call.
Every post is written against one of 4 service lines. If you already know which line your question belongs to, the hub page for it covers the same ground in more depth than a post can.
The seo blog material sits inside Lead Generation rather than in a category of its own, because search is one channel in a program rather than something we sell separately.
Most of these posts started as a problem on a real account. If you are looking at the same one, describe it and we will tell you what we found rather than making you read for it.
There is no schedule. A post gets written when something happens that is worth writing down, which means the gaps are uneven and the posts are about real work rather than a content calendar.
Not exclusively, though a large share of the posts are about home services and the trades, because that is where much of our lead generation work sits. The CRM and automation posts apply to any B2B team. Lead Generation hub
Scope. A post covers one specific thing, usually written while it is fresh. A guide covers a whole process end to end and is written after running it enough times to know where it goes wrong. how-to guides
Yes. If it is something we have run into on real accounts, it is a candidate. If it is not, we will say so rather than researching a subject and publishing it as experience.
