- Direct testimonials. Project-level reviews collected at engagement close.

Agency-era blog · 2024–2025
142 agency-era posts. Ported, labelled, kept readable.
Through 2024 and 2025 the agency blog accumulated articles on AI marketing, AEO/GEO, neural-network promotion, marketing analytics, content strategy, contractor selection, and SMB growth. All on-positioning posts — 63 English and 79 Russian — were ported to the new editorial collection during the 2026 platform rebuild. Each carries an «Agency-era archive» badge so readers can tell pre-rebuild proof from new 2026 work.
- English archive. 63 posts on AI marketing, content automation, lead-gen tactics. Full list at /blog.
- Russian archive. 79 статей по AEO/GEO, нейросетям, AI-маркетингу. Full list at /ru/blog.
- What was dropped. Roughly 200 generic SEO/SMM posts unrelated to the new AEO/GEO positioning — they did not move to the new editorial collection. Their URLs redirect to this archive page.
Each ported post displays the original publication date and the «Agency-era archive» badge in its header. New 2026-onwards editorial work ships without the badge.
Why we rebuilt · 2025–2026
The agency era ended when buyers stopped Googling. The platform era began the same week.
In 2025 we watched our own clients pay $5K a month for content Google had stopped showing — and that AI had never learned to cite. We stopped optimising pages and started building the third-party evidence AI actually trusts. The first proof was on us: 2 to 1,000+ citations in three months. The story of that rebuild lives at /about. The seven case studies of the new method live at /cases.
