Andrew (ID: 00000066deaf826d) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 01/26/2024 You need an account just to get domain metrics. It seems to get stuck with a cache issue, for example you update the headings and it shows the older ones. The domain metrics also don't match or sync properly. These guys were the best, now they are has beens, product hardly gets any updates, frequent spelling errors in the keyword data set, CMO is next to useless just spam posts where he is flying to next on CreepedIn

Mykola Churik (ID: 0000003461dfb7ba) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/21/2023 Really helpful, even without an Ahrefs account.

Fabrizio Gabrielli (ID: 0000004871014745) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 12/19/2023 It would be useful, but I get many errors for detecting URL's starting with " ", which is allowed only for system files. I had to uninstall. Considering the tool, which is one of the best, I am not satisfied. Two stars as encouregement, only because it worked fine for a while, before beginning to get errors.
