What do you like best about Ahrefs?

Keyword finder. I like it better than using google keyword planner...by a long shot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

I think the UX is a little wonky. The software isn't super user-friendly, if you don't know what you are doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Give it a shot, especially for keyword research and discovery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

I like the new/lost domains and links. I use the lost links and domains report to follow up with prospects in hopes to renew the link on the site. 9/10 times this works to re-acquire a decent link back to my client's sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

I wish there was a way to send alerts for lost links in real time. I also feel that the link intersect could be a bit more detailed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Excellent go-to source for link data. Use in conjunction with Majestic and Search Console, and you're set. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Re-upping lost links, link building, potential content ideas for new pieces in the pipeline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

Ahrefs accuracy is amazing. It is incredible how much data you can pull from other websites. My team and I use Ahrefs all the time to ensure our content is primed for Google rankings and traffic. Without it, we'd be lost in what content we should write and what keywords we should target.

But I'd also go as far to say that we are constantly learning new things about Ahrefs and what it can do. So much to this tool, it is absolutely incredible.

I'm also a really big fan of their blog. They've got some incredible information there and worth checking out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

While Ahrefs can do a LOT, their tutorials and training on how to use it is lacking. I wish they'd have a full free course on everything Ahrefs can do. This would have helped my team do a much better job from the beginning and become more comfortable with it as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Take the time to figure out everything Ahrefs can do. You'd be surprised with how much they offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Ahrefs helps us to figure out what keywords to target, what content to write and what backlinks to go after so that we can beat our competitors, raise our rankings on Google and dominate our industry. Thanks to Ahrefs we now get over 100K visitors per month and were able to do that in just over a year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

Apart from letting you keep a track on almost all the metrics that impacts website SEO, it allows me to set alerts for backlinks (new and lost), referring domains, product mentions and of course the keyword performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

I wish it had the ability to label keywords that are being tracked. When you have multiple content strategies running as the same time, the keyword labels (and label groups in general) let you keep clear on what's working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Giving insights regarding our website SEO and in fact our competitor's SEO, it is helping us in setting some realistic goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

I like how you can browse your competitor's backlink profile. This gives me new ideas of where I can push SEO development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

I dislike that Ahrefs does not update in real time. I usually will see backlinks update 2-3 days after they go live. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Get it! The tool has unlimited data insights that you can uncover. Their blog content is also helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are improving our SEO by using Ahref's tools, which has a huge impact on our online visibility. Because of this tool we have improved our DA by 10 points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

It finds more links than similar tools, and provides tools to help explore them. Provides access to deep information on competitor sites. Regularly adds new features to help marketers explore their link profile; one example being separating out "Live" and "Fresh" index so you can find recent but non current links. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

A little expensive. Support responses can be slow. Interface can be rather confusing although they recently improved it a lot (see above re: regular updates). I couldn't get the Chrome Extension to work in any of my installations of Chrome, so I still use competitor toolbars in my browser. You can't ever change your login email address thanks to the billing system, so choose carefully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Prepare to spend your life spelling it to finance / procurement, etc, or debating its pronunciation with colleagues. And you will find helpful how-to videos not only from Ahrefs' YouTube channel, but also third parties such as Authority Hacker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Provides a way to track the effect of link building activity and demonstrate the impact on search traffic. Excellent for competitor analysis. Helps with researching what content to produce, which competitors are gaining in search and why, which keywords your site could realistically aim to rank for, and gives you enough information to plan how to do it.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

I like that the tool has a very useful historical look at your backlink profile. It allows you to track individual keywords matched to specific URL's. You can also look at specifc URL's and see how many and what backlinks you have with those pages specificly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

I think that in some ways the dashboard views are a bit hard to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

I feel that this is not a all-in-one tool that will help you with all of your SEO needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are using this tool in conjunction with some other SEO tools out in the market to check our backlink history, do keyword research and help build our SEO to improve in SERPS Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

I've used Ahrefs since it was first released. The team has done an amazing job of staying current with new updates in search and is constantly pushing the product in new and exciting directions. I am seriously a huge fan. It's a lot more than an SEO tool - it's a general purpose growth marketing tool that can help you a lot when it comes to putting together a marketing or PR strategy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

I would say that i don't always have confidence in their proprietary metrics like DR, but I mainly use them as a raw data source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It's helped us put together pitch lists and come up with new ideas for our content marketing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

You can easily keep track of sites that have linked to your content and drill down to the specific URL where your link appears. You can also see when those links appeared and how authoritative each one is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

The organic and paid search estimators are inaccurate. The position heatmap is designed to give you an overview of rankings, but is nearly impossible to discern since it's a blur of colors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Ahrefs' core competency is measuring quantity and quality of backlinks. Do not use this tool if you're looking for it to work for rank traffic, traffic estimating, or competitor insights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We want to see how well our content promotion efforts are working. By using ahrefs we can prove our value to clients by showing who is picking up our content and linking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
