### Comment 2

I use Ahrefs in my business. 

They have an API that gives me the data I need, like Domain Rating (DR), which I use in my own SEO product GoneDomains for finding expired domains with backlinks and traffic.

### Comment 3

Ahrefs is an SEO tool for analyzing a website's performance on search engines and identifying areas for improvement. It can be used for keyword research (a very comprehensive database to find opportunities and assess ranking difficulty), backlink analysis (understand a site's link profile, detect toxic links, and spot link-building opportunities for SEOs), competitive analysis, such as knowing which keywords generate traffic for your competitors and which pages perform best. It is also a good tool for conducting technical audits, that is, identifying issues that hinder a site's visibility (technical errors, duplicate content, performance, etc.) and content analysis (identify content that works, gaps to fill, and high-potential topics).
