What do you like best about Ahrefs?

The thing that I liked the best about Ahrefs is that it contains a huge database of backlinks when I've checked my own website and my competitor's websites. This has allowed me to dig deeper and find out their exact linkbuilding and SEO strategies. Ahref contains a lot of tools and features that will make the life of an SEO professional or webmaster who wants more search engine traffic a lot easier. One of these features is the batch analysis feature. Basically, instead of entering your competitor's backlinks one at a time you could actually enter it once. This allows you to quickly check on the SEO metrics for a lot of competitor URLs in just one click. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

What I disliked about Ahrefs is that it takes a little bit of time to learn and use. There's a fairly good amount of learning curve for using Ahrefs. You'll also need to understand what each of the metrics meant in order for you to analyze these metrics properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Ahrefs is one of the most powerful backlink checking tools to date. It's definitely a worthy arsenal in your internet marketing toolset. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ahrefs solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a professional blogger, I've always struggled with getting more traffic to my own websites and the websites that I handle. And one of the strategies that I routinely use is search engine optimization. SEO or Search engine optimization involves a lot of things. While On Page SEO is mostly done on the website, the OFF Page stuff is mostly done outside of your website. Ahrefs has helped me do a lot of the Off page stuff like analyzing what are my competitor's SEO strategies, what are their backlinks, where are they getting them. I've also used Ahrefs to find out my competitor's content strategy because I could easily check what are the content and pages that are getting the most shares and backlinks on their website.

All and all this is a fantastic piece of SEO software. The keyword search volume tool is fantastic and the ability to bulk upload URLs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

The one thing I would like to see improved is the rank tracking part (which I know is in the works). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

Great catalogue of competitors' back links and linking opportunities for your site. Ahrefs also has great customer support--Someone will get back to you in an hour or so to answer any questions you might have. The pricing is also reasonable for the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

If you don't pay for the premium packages, you can't really access most of the software. For us (small company), the link intersect tool is nearly useless because we need to upgrade to see nearly all of the results. We were upgraded to the "middle" package when they increased their prices last year, but it still feels as though we're missing out on a lot of the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

If you invest any time in link building, this is a good tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ahrefs solving and how is that benefiting you?

This has allowed us to repaid broken links, find good opportunities and domains to connect with, and analyze what strategies our competitors are using. It's also good for generating new ideas for content. For example, you can see what content is receiving a lot of back links on your competitors' sites, which allows you to modify your own campaigns going forward.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

Keyword explorer, which was released few weeks back is one of the most exhaustive tools that we have see off late. Keyword Ideas, Phrase Match and KD help content marketers to align their content marketing efforts with organic search trends. Apart from that from an on page point of view, the tool gives everything that modern age webmaster need to track their overall performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

The Ahref rank seems like an abstract concept. The tool itself was under development for quiet some time and that was exactly when we had purchased it as well. Some of the metrics like KD are available basis cache only and not updated frequently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Keyword Explorer and Rank Tracker are two amazing features that help Ahrefs stand out. Apart from that the product is backed by some great content in terms of how to start cracking traffic and opportunity. Must try Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ahrefs solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Ahrefs heavily for our content planning and marketing activities. Ahrefs also supports multiple languages ensuring that marketers can also plan their localization efforts and create their strategy for international SEO. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

Keyword research tools are great for looking up competitor keywords and then finding opportunities with search volumes and competitiveness of the keywords. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

The SEO grader which graded your site for technical SEO issues was taken offline sometime in the early fall of 2016. It's been about 8 months and it's still not back even though they were promising an upgrade would be done in a couple short months. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

If you're looking to research links and competitors, this is a great tool. For on site technical SEO look elseware for now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ahrefs solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tracking links and keywords for clients. Benefits just help me do reports and research easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

It's non-technical self-explanatory usability. I began using this product before knowing what it was capable of. With that, it was simple to explore the product and self-teach! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

I think that there are some pretty standard features that different subscription tiers nullify. So, depending on how much you pay, you might not have access to certain information. This is obviously common, but I think a restructure of what certain tiers have access to is in order. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

We love the Intersecting Link Opportunity report, which helps us plan our link-earning strategy based on the semantic Web and relevancy. There really isn't a better way of finding industry websites to market with that could result in organic link wins. Our team has been using Ahrefs for as long as we can remember, mainly because it offers a higher volume of discovered links when weighed against similar tools.

We also really enjoy New and Lost link insights, which allow us to monitor negative SEO behavior and see what the competition is up to in near-real-time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

The Intersecting Link Opportunity report we love could offer an automatic version that takes into account the top 20 listings for a given keyword phrase, saving the researcher copy/paste time and having to run multiple requests. Their Most Popular Content list is definitely helpful, but doesn't give us the semantic relevancy we get from the intersecting report.

Highlighting unlinked domains is fantastic, but completely useless without the ability to export and exclude highlighted opportunities. They really need to fix that.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

You won't find a better a better link research tool than Ahrefs. It complements Buzzstream and other link building CRM software extremely well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ahrefs solving and how is that benefiting you?

Google cares about Content first and Links second when it comes to how it ranks a page within it's results. This tool allows us to see where competing domains are earning links and insights into the specific content that attracts links for the competition. This insights assist us in creating an actionable strategy for our clients using a CRM such as Buzzstream to import data into. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
