Overall Satisfaction with Ahrefs

The best feature that I use about Ahrefs is the keyword tool. One feature that Ahref is better than the other products is the backlink report. Ahrefs gives me a more detailed information on the backlink link than any other tools I have used. I am usually satisfied with the results that Ahrefs shares with me concerning my website. However, I find Ahrefs pricing a bit toward the higher side. May be the team can decrease the prices or add some discounts etc.,
  • Backlink Report
  • SEO Audits
  • Keyword Research
  • Topic research
  • competition analysis
  • A better view at rankings. Sometimes the rankings are not correct.
  • Price point is a bit too high.
  • The SEO audit should be available in the free version
  • Helps me pitch to the client with an Audit Report
  • Helps me analyze the clients competitors
  • Overall converting the client
We found the user interface of Ahrefs slightly better than the rest. Also, the details involved in the outputs we more informative. For example, once an audit is done, the steps that are involved in fixing that issue are well explained in Ahrefs. Also, I found Ahrefs backlink analysis better than any other tool that I have used.

Ahrefs is best suited when we need to do a backlink analysis and also when we need to do a complete technical SEO audit. My team mostly uses the tool for backlink purpose and audits, we also use the same for tasks such as Keyword research, topic research, understanding the difficulty of the keywords. We do also use the tool for a competitive research.
