Ahref’s SEO Tool
Introduction Ahrefs is one of the most powerful suites of social media & SEO tools used by SEO experts. Most SEOs know it as a “backlink checker” that competes with Majestic and intelligence/analytics tools with smaller indices like Moz & SEMRush. But “backlink checker” grossly undersells Ahrefs as a marketing suite. Ahrefs Dashboard is where you keep track of all your data. You can add a URL to keep a running snapshot of a domains health. It will quickly show you any technical crawl errors, new links, new referring domains, and a snapshot of Ahrefs’ domain rating and URL ranking.

Or (and I recommend this approach), you can use the information to understand what has been working in the industry and use it to develop your own unique tactics.
