# Ahrefs MCP

Use for **product/category backlinks** and third-party **site audit** views on e-commerce sites. Namespace: `mcp__ahrefs__*` / `mcp__claude_ai_Ahrefs__*`.

## Key endpoints

- `site-explorer-top-pages` — which product/category pages earn the most links/traffic
- `site-explorer-pages-by-backlinks` — link equity distribution across the catalog
- `site-audit-issues` — schema, canonical, parameter-URL issues from Ahrefs' crawler
- `site-audit-page-explorer` — per-page issue surfacing
- `keywords-explorer-overview` — product-term volume / KD

## Example

```
mcp__ahrefs__site-explorer-top-pages(target="<store>", country="us", limit=100)
mcp__ahrefs__site-audit-issues(project_id="<id>")
mcp__ahrefs__keywords-explorer-overview(keyword="<product>", country="us")
```

## Strengths for this skill

- Surfaces which **product pages** earn external links — informs which products deserve hero-page promotion.
- Site Audit catches canonical / parameter-URL issues across the catalog without running your own crawler.

## Not for this skill when

- **Product schema validation** — OurSEO `audit_page` + `build kg-schema` owns this end-to-end.
- **Korean marketplace presence** (Naver Smart Store, Coupang, Gmarket, 11번가) — Ahrefs doesn't cover these. Use WebSearch.
- **Live catalog crawl of the target** — OurSEO `crawl_website` is more configurable.
