Hello. Great comparison. I’ve been choosing an instrument for a year now and can’t decide.
How about the projects? With ahrefs, I can have unlimited projects as long as I verify them with GSC. Is it the same with Semrash? Or can I really only have 5 and not more?

I personally would go with SEMRush as it is better to some extent. I have tried both Ahrefs and Moz Pro before, but SEMRush does the job for me.

Thanks for a great article!

In reply to Alex. I agree. Their new pricing structure is misleading. I'll be updating this post shortly to highlight the changes in Ahrefs' pricing plans.

Be careful with ahrefs!
The product is great… but the number of requests is extremely limited.

I just got screwed.
I paid $99 for a month, but I could not use the service after 48 hours.
Just a shame!

If I had known, I would have taken a Semrush subscription.

ahref (99$) : 500 queries per MONTH
semrush (119$) : 3.000 queries per DAY, that is 90.000 queries per MONTH

I think there is no need to hesitate !

Ugggg this is so hard. I need a tool that does content marketing and clusting and I am leaning towards Semrush, plush Semrush does a lot of free things if you were to go free. BUT I like Ahrefs backlink tool. I am so confused.

One advantage AHREFs has over SEMrush is its ability to run audits on Progressive Web Application (PWA) sites that use Javascript.

I think we agree. These are 2 very powerful SEO tools. It’s just that each of us has different needs, so we have different choices. I chose Ahrefs. Although on occasion also use SEMrush.

Semrush is better for analysis keyword research. Although what is important is not the tool but the analysis that we as a seo consultant do.

For these, I can’t choose. I love them both and they have tools that have overlapping functions. I don’t know if it is worth to get both though so you may need to choose one if you are on a tight budget.

Sandeep, I think SEMrush is better in keyword research and Ahrefs is better in backlinks research it is my opinion, and both tools have a lot of great features, and become top choices of professionals but because I hate Ahrefs paid trial that is why I will give priority to SEMrush.
