There are many SEO tools and one of those is Ahrefs. It is a very useful toolset and I would prefer to use it for competitor analysis, backlink research, and keyword research. I also like SEMrush and they offer easy to use interface, reporting, and rank tracking features. You can decide which one to use based on your requirements. Or you can use Semrush & Ahrefs trial to learn how they work.<\/p>\n

To use Ahrefs you have to pay a minimum of $99 or you can use an Ahrefs 7 day trial for $7. When you pay for the trial it becomes $8.26 due to the added tax. It’s an affordable price to test out all the features. And once you are satisfied you can upgrade to a monthly plan. Or if you don’t want to upgrade then you can also do a lot in these 7 days.<\/p>\n

So, let’s find out<\/p>\n

How To Utilize The Ahrefs 7 Day Trial?<\/h3>\n

Before buying an Ahrefs trial you should read a few posts by Ahrefs that will help you understand their tool better. I will suggest taking the time to read this post on How to judge keyword difficulty<\/a> & check out Ahrefs academy<\/a>.\u00a0 I really like the articles written Joshua Hardwick on keyword research. So, once you read these your next task is to find your competitors before getting a paid Ahrefs trial.<\/p>\n

1. Shortlist & Build A Competitor List<\/h3>\n

To do this you don’t need to decide a few basic keywords on which you would like to rank in SERPs. Just enter those keywords in Google and observe web pages that are targeting this keyword and following a business strategy similar to yours. This way you can make a list of competitors to find low competition keywords. Make sure that you have at least ten to fifteen competitors so that you can use those to find their backlinks and keywords.<\/p>\n

2. What To Do After You Bought Ahrefs 7 Day Trial<\/h3>\n

Go to the Site Explorer in Ahrefs and put your competitor’s site URL one by one. Take a look at their backlinks, referring domains, and organic traffic. If the competitor is not a large site and has very little DR (domain authority) as shown in the site below. Then it gets easy to write a few articles on the keywords that your competitor is targeting. So, click on organic traffic and export all the keywords that the site is ranking for. If there are a lot of keywords then filter them based on your requirements. Always keep in mind that low volume but long-tail keywords can help you rank faster.<\/p>\n

Also, take a look at the backlinks and export that sheet for later uses. Exporting all the data is necessary as once the Ahrefs trial expires you will not be able to fetch all this data.<\/p>\n

\"referring<\/p>\n

Keywords Explorer<\/h3>\n

The keyword research tool of Ahrefs is also great but I prefer to use it mainly for competitor analysis and backlink research. So, if you want to explore this tool then spend a day trying inputting various keywords for your niche.<\/p>\n

Site Audit<\/h3>\n

If you already have a website or blog with lots of URLs then run a site audit to find and resolve some common onpage issues.<\/p>\n
