How To Use Ahrefs for Backlinks
Here's a step by step tutorial on how to use Ahrefs for backlinks:
- Go to Ahrefs>Site Explorer and enter your competitor domain name.
- Click on Backlink Profile to note the link building trend of your competitor.
- Head over to Backlinks under Backlink profile in the left pane.
- You can select to Show all links or narrow down to Show best links only and hit Show results.
- These are all the domains that are referring to your competitors domain.
- Export the backlink report as CSV.
If your competitor has a backlink from a domain, it's highly likely they won't mind giving you the link too if you can create high quality content to be linked back to.
