What do you like best about Ahrefs?

What can you say about a tool that so intuitively reaches into the depths of the internet to show you every link, every share, and every tweet pointing to the site you are researching. I always joke that you can't hide something from an SEO and it's these tools that make that possible.

Can't say enough nice things about Ahrefs, it quickly became our one stop tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

I wish when you went to the Ahrefs homepage that it let you do the Site Explorer thing instead of trying to get you to setup one of their campaigns, I usually just want to glance at the data quickly, and having to click over to explorer is just one extra step - that is a nitpick, but it's something I deal with on every use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Just get it - it's a slam dunk, it's easy and you'll have more data than you'll ever use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It gives us access to the data we need to quickly figure out how much competition a competitor has for our clients, and compare that to find out how much work we'll have to do and how much time we'll have to spend on the clients site/backlinks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

The Domain Health overview is fantastic for finding out if a website has toxic links in its profile. Ahrefs also has many features that go well beyond just links -- a list of critical issues such as missing or duplicate meta tags, broken internal links, and broken back links. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

There's seriously not much to dislike, but the rank tracking functionality is pretty decent -- I like the fact that it has keyword suggestions with search volume and traffic, however, once you try to add the keywords to the tracker, I had it error out a couple of times and had to re-do my selections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Use it for at least three months. It takes continual use to discovering the best features the product has to offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Ahrefs is one of the first tools I use to asses a new or potential client. If they have low-quality back links, this tool with tell me. I can then schedule link detox as one of the first parts of the strategy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

Ahrefs is the best link building tool in the market. I really like it. I have tested many tools but none gets closer to the amount of accurate data Ahrefs provides.

Their system is really quick to pick new links gained as well as links from 301 redirects. Combining Ahrefs data with Google Webmasters Tools is the best way to do a proper link audit.

The way they present the data is easy to digest and the most important part; you can export pretty much anything from it.

Besides the links, Ahrefs also provide useful information about the social media presence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

Sometimes Ahrefs does not show new links right away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

It is a very good link audit tool. Probably the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Ahrefs is the main tool I use for link audit for my clients. It gives all the information I need to make a decision if I should drop a link and also if I should make a move and try to get one of the competitors links. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

When we were just beginning to make SEO analytics part of our weekly content meeting, Ahref was a fast informative tool. The keyword watching process was quick and meaningful. The alerts and reports lists are easy to export and send to the team for repairs. We've kept on using it for its backlink report, even after primarily switching to other tools Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

The reporting tools felt lightweight even when we started. Graphical comparisons of competitors can't be done, and overall the app doesn't feel like an operational dashboard. Also, there lo long-timescale for data trends. You can only see the most recent change. That just doesn't compare with tools like SEM Rush. Another feature that really felt missing was the ability to label keywords we are watching. This simple addition let's you switch 'views' of your site's data. 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.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

If SEO analytics seems overwhelming to you, start with this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have a large content development operation, for which we need to monitor the performance of various strategies. This is for news, reviews, advice, and related information about financial products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

My company conducted an extenstive study of backlink software platforms to integrate into our platform, and Ahrefs quickly rose to the top of the heap, As heavy API users, we appreciate their easy to use interface and great pricing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

Their dataset is not as powerful as MajesticSEO's, but the value is way better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

It's a great piece of software, at a great price, that provides incredible data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We don't collect our own backlink data; we just analyze that data and integrate it into our software. We needed a powerful but not overly expensive solution to get backlink data at scale, and ahrefs provided that and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

In depth link data available alongside historical organic ranking data and keyword research tools. It's pretty easy to get the job done here without jumping to another tool for something. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

The reporting capabilities are a little lacking in shareable reporting - you can export CSV data all day, but I really would like many of the dashboard reprots to be a sharable URL... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

Consider this over SEMrush, it's got as much data for kw research and blows their link data out of the water while also providing actual position tracking too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I'm finding opportunities to build search rankings by identifying how their link profile has been weak, and analyzing competitors to find new link opportunities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

There's an extensive amount of easy user experience with this site. It doesn't take any kind of in depth training to get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

Up to date information. Sometimes the information be it the page rank, domain rank, or backlinks don't match other pieces of software like Moz when analyzing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

This is a great bet to get started with backlink profile analyzation for both you and your competitors. This will take a lot of the guess work out when targeting your audience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Back link profiles are the name of the game. Ahrefs allows me to take an in-depth look at not only my clients back link profile, but my competitors as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

ahrefs does a great job of showing both social and backlinks. You can get a free trial and a few limited features work on the free plan.

Only the free plan you can only see the top 5 links on a single site but you can still see the summary of your links - domain health, URL rating, backlinks, referring domains, organic keywords, and ip. You can drill down into all these.

You can track 5 keywords and get a ranking report every week.

The full blown version offers much more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

ahrefs is pricier at $99/month than Majestic's Silver Quarterly Plan ($50/month - regular price is $79/month) and about the same as Moz Pro ($99/month) . They know they are good so no budget prices fro them.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

if you can afford a link analysis tool, you must consider ahrefs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Like all SEO companies we strive to get links for our clients' websites and ourselves.

If we had the budget we would definitely want a subscription to ahrefs as well as Majestic, Moz Pro, and Buzzsumo to name a few. Since we are not a big company with deep pockets we try to get as much as possible out of teh free versions of the tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ahrefs?

I use this as my daily workhorse while doing SEO/linkbuilding.

The results are quick and are pretty much exactly what I need to build quality links.

The quality and accuracy of the results seem to be the most accurate compared to other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ahrefs?

The software will sometimes show too many 404 or non existing web page as results. I haven't been able to figure out how to remove them from the results since they are basically useless for what I use the program for. A simple button "remove dead pages from results" might be a great future upgrade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ahrefs:

I would recommend this product for anyone who is looking to do quality white hat SEO Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are using the software to help us find quality sub pages on websites that are good candidates for link building. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
