### "La base de datos más completa"

January 22, 2023

5.0

Controlo los datos de mi propia web utilizando el plan gratuito que permite unas cuantas consultas al mes.

Pros

Es la que da unos resultados más completos. Tiene más backlinks indexados y ofrece información más precisa.

Cons

El precio es muy elevado para un profesional individual. En general, creo que la mayoría de herramientas SEO están sobrevaloradas.

### "Great but expensive "

March 26, 2020

5.0

Everything was fine. Software is running we’ll and the results are good.

Pros

Very good software for finding keywords for your business. Tracking of your rankings is good as well.

Cons

To be honest: the price. There subscription that make sense costs around 170 per month. The cheaper one doesn’t show keyword over position 20

### "Good, But Requires Learning"

May 8, 2019

4.0

We use it to pick out keywords for our articles and that seems to work very well. It allows us to pick a keyword for us to rank higher on google. I am not sure what else their site has to offer, but using it for just this function is very helpful.

Pros

I like their keyword search function. It also gives you suggestions for keywords that you may not have thought of.

Cons

If you do not have any SEO experience it would be difficult for you to use this software on your own. You need a background knowledge of SEO and how important it is to pick a keyword.

### "The full fledge trustworthy product for SEO experts and marketers."

July 27, 2018

5.0

1) Keyword analysis of my clients and me. 2) The idea of the total authority of the websites. 3) The standings of my website with my competitors.

Pros

The Data patterns and the analytics of each and every website are amazing of the ahrefs. the support is also good.

Cons

Ahrefs is expensive in terms of the cost. It doesn't have any free version to test the entire system. other SEO tools have given that option so we have considered the same for longer use. but not with ahrefs.

### "Ahrefs review"

October 31, 2019

5.0

It's been great, everything from keyword research to backlink finder and so on.

Pros

Oh, where to begin? If I had to choose 1 thing out of everything then it's the keyword explorer feature.

Cons

There is just one thing not to like the software and it's the price. Otherwise, it's an absolute beast of a product with nothing else to compare against.

### "Ahfres for all the in-depth data you need."

December 9, 2018

5.0

Very useful but once someone else shown be all the possibilities available.

Pros

Ahfres offers many functionalities which also means insights into many valuable data. However, if you are a beginner in marketing not everything may seem clear and you may even not be aware of all the functions which are available there. But once you get to know them, the tool is super valuable.

Cons

It's quite expensive. Some metrics may not be obvious and enough explained.

### "The Best Solution on the Market, Almost Too Many Features"

March 30, 2019

5.0

Great product, fortunately, I had a colleague teach me how to use some features to do my work successfully.

Pros

It's the most trusted and valued SEO tool for content marketers to do keyword research and see which keywords your site already ranks for. I'm not an expert in the software, but there is a lot more functionality than I use for my work.

Cons

There is almost too many features built into Ahrefs because it there are a lot of menu items that I don't use, or know what they do. It's a blessing and a curse because it is the most comprehensive solution, but with too much functionality available, do marketers get full value from the software?

### "Ahrefs makes our content game better"

May 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

We don't even have the time to explore all of its features. One of the tools that we're taking advantage of is the Content Gap tool. It can unveil some unexpected opportunities.

Cons

I don't have any, but I'm not a daily user, so I'm sure there are places where the tool can improve. As a weekly user, I can say that they have a good tool, good content, good courses, they're heading the right way.

### "The best SEO off-page tool"

February 7, 2018

4.0

Pros

It is one of the best SEO tools I have ever used. This gives a lot of information about Backlinks, DR, recent links, lost links etc.

Cons

Pricing is high compared to other competitors. I don't see any cons in the tool except premium pricing.

### "Recommend it to all my marketing/content writing peers"

April 17, 2021

5.0

Overall, I love using Ahrefs and recommend it to my employees and colleagues often.

Pros

As a content writer and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] of a marketing firm, my team and I use Ahrefs pretty much daily to generate high-quality keywords and love it!

Cons

I don't like how sometimes the keywords repeat. I often need a long list of words and need a wider net.

### "Super easy tool for blog keywords"

February 4, 2020

5.0

I'd recommend Ahrefs to anyone who writes blogs and wants to quickly find low-difficulty keywords with high volume.

Pros

I love how easy it is so find the right keyword quickly. The keyword explorer and phrase match features are super simple.

Cons

There's a lot going on in the user interface, so unless you know exactly what you're doing, it's easy to get lost.

July 16, 2019

5.0

Pros

This is one of the best tools for SEO research and strategy!

Cons

The pricing is more than what I'd like to pay. It would be great if they offered different price points that were based on size of business.

### "Gold Standard for links"

July 19, 2018

5.0

Pros

ahrefs is a tried and true software package that is the definitive Bible when it comes to identifying links to your website.

Cons

The negatives for ahrefs are actually the other side of the coin for the positives--there is so much data to review that it is daunting to get into it.
