Ahrefs , to pronounce “A-Axe-REF” is an SEO tool, that is to say a tool to improve your position in search engines , in particular Google. Ahref has been able to gain a good reputation since its creation by allowing many e-merchants and site owners to know precisely what needed to be improved on their site, their positions, the sites of competitors and of course to find the right words. keys.
Today, Ahref is one of the largest databases of keywords and SEO tips to boost your SEO without needing to be an expert. Of course, this always takes time and even if SEO is often considered a prerequisite in the skills of an e-commerce manager , having the right tool to save time makes the difference.
What is ahrefs?
Ahrefs is therefore a multi-service SEO tool, it will bring together:
- A positioning tool, which, let's be honest, is perhaps Ahref's weakest point.
- A competitor monitoring tool
- A “site seo health” dashboard which is absolutely essential for any webmaster!
- A “content explorer” to find new ideas for keywords to enrich your content
- An Ahref academy to train in natural referencing
- A wordpress plugin but unfortunately not, yet, a Shopify plugin or application
- And many other services to perform almost all your SEO tasks in one place.

It is in my opinion an essential for any site manager, e-commerce or not, so much it is a mine of information at your disposal.
Advantages of ahrefs
The main advantage of Ahref is twofold: already it can, for your site, give you a lot of information for free but it never stops.
An e-commerce site is always in motion, we add products, links, content and it can quickly become several thousand pages to monitor.
Humanly impossible to do that without going crazy. Ahref will therefore do the work for you and notify you of any changes.
No need to stay in front of your screen to know that H1 tags are duplicated on 21 products and that they therefore never refer correctly.
Ahref automatically monitors many things to avoid penalties from Google or poor implementation of your content. And to monitor your site, you don't need to be an expert in natural referencing , Ahref indicates the errors to be corrected.
The time saving is therefore considerable knowing that the installation of Ahref only takes a few moments, you just have to prove to Ahref the ownership of your site.
In the jargon, this is called a “No Brainer”. No need to think, you have to have it, at least in a free version for your site.
Price of ahrefs
A ahref therefore has a free version that is 100% free for your site. But with that you won't have access to content about your competitors or content ideas for you.
But to test it out, the paid version of Ahref starts at $7 for a full week of using all the features.
What to get an idea at low cost of the true potential of Ahref for your E-commerce site.
