You can see what articles in your niche have high search volume and low competition so you can help your blog/website get found, you can see what your competitors are ranking for and use filters like search volume and competition to see which you can use to plan similar content and get more search traffic, and so much more. > > **Cons**: It is pricy. It is not easily accessible to the average person starting a website, however, if you have a decent budget for SEO, Ahrefs is one of the best investments you can make. > > Ahrefs helped me plan out content with low competition that would actually be seen. However, due to the price I wasn't able to afford it for too long. ----- ### "If you can afford this tool, do not spare the money" — 5.0/5 > **Paweł** | *12 July 2023* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ahrefs has a very large database containing all the required elements for effective website positioning. > > **Cons**: I would like to say, that there is not a function that i like least.

Occasionally you can expect some issues with updates but from few months it's very rarely. ----- ### "The best tool for Backlinking and one of the best SEO tools of all the times" — 5.0/5 > **Marco Genaro** | *7 December 2023* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Although I'm a big fan of the audits and traffic estimations, which are very useful for competitor analysis, what I like the most about Ahrefs are their features related to backlinking. Many of these features provide all the information you need to create various types of outreach campaigns and advance your SEO techniques, such as detecting backlinks pointing to 404 pages or identifying unlinked mentions. > > **Cons**: I found it a bit expensive. That's probably why is only for SEO Pros. Also, it's a bit hard to use at the very beginning. > > Is definitely one of the big SEO tools in the market. Although it is pricy, Ahrefs is definitely a must if you're into backlinking campaings. They have unique features that are very useful to perform outreach campaigns. ----- Page: 1 / 25\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/64773/ahrefs?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/64773/ahrefs) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
