We're (soft) launching Agent A — a top 1% marketer on your team.
And we're giving free 1-month access to all paying customers of @ahrefs! 🔥
If you wanna learn more, I broke down what Agent A is (and how it's different from just giving Claude Code access to Ahrefs' API) over on r/ahrefs.
Would love to hear what you think.
Google: "We just made $100 billion in 3-months for the first time ever!"
SMBs: "Ok, but you got there by stealing all of our traffic and content, are you going to pay us?"
Google: "AI is BETTER for websites than normal old Google clicks! (and also no, we steal and you get nothing)."
SMBs: "Ok, let me check my traffic chart and see how this is helping me who has been creating original content for 15 years in my niche and considered the number one source on the topic"
Small business traffic chart in GSC:
Domain Rating (DR) is a made-up metric that runs a $500M/year scam economy.
I watched someone manipulate their DR from 0 to 70 in 30 days with $500.
Now they sell guest posts for $1,000 each. 500+ buyers monthly.
The entire link economy is built on fake math.
Let me expose how:

Wait, you mean OpenAI can turn the dials and rankings and downstream traffic can change radically? But what about all the adjustments sites are implementing just for AI chatbots? :) -> From Josh at Profound: "ChatGPT referral traffic is down -52% since July 21st, I pulled from our dataset of 1+ billion ChatGPT citations and 1+ million referral visits from ChatGPT to figure out what's going on."
"The referral decline started right as citation patterns shifted dramatically. Reddit citations increased +87% starting July 23rd, reaching more than 10% of all ChatGPT citations. Wikipedia simultaneously hit historic highs, up +62% since its July low to nearly 13% citation share yesterday."
"The top 3 domains (Wikipedia, Reddit, TechRadar) combined have grown +53%, now controlling 22% of all citations. That's 1 in 5 ChatGPT citations going to just three sites." https://t.co/uL9Izv5GR1
