An update from us on the "/goto links" situation in Google SERPs: Google recently began routing a growing share of search results through /goto redirects instead of direct URLs. This change has caused a temporary inconsistency in our data. When you're processing the volume we do, these things take a moment to work through. Our team is already working to restore the affected results. We're also not short on options. Years of building our own web index and search engine (Yep.com), means we've got first-party data to lean on if this becomes a longer-term pattern. Appreciate you bearing with us!

Track your brand's AI visibility in two ways with Ahrefs Brand Radar: 🗺️ AI Visibility Index: search across 473M+ prompts modeled from real search demand with zero setup. Best if your brand already shows up in AI answers. 💬 Prompt tracking: track the exact questions your buyers ask and see what AI says about you with custom prompts. Works even for a new brand nobody searches yet. Already an Ahrefs customer? Lite and higher plans get a set of free custom prompts 🚀

🌍 NEW in Keywords Explorer: --> All Locations mode available for Enterprise users --> Research keywords across every location and compare metrics --> Discover ideas in different languages --> See how pages rank globally without location-switching

📈 NEW in Web Analytics: --> Google Analytics data without Ahrefs tracking script available --> Connect your Google Account to pull GA4 data --> Switch between GA and Ahrefs datasets freely ⚠️ Google Analytics doesn’t support every Web Analytics report, metric, or filter combination. In GA-only mode, unsupported reports, metrics, and filters are hidden.

📍 NEW in Local SEO: --> Generate replies for Google reviews --> Batch and rewrite the draft replies or add custom instructions to personalize the replies

🤖 NEW in Bot Analytics: --> Status codes report See which status codes bots hit across your site and how many bots and pages each one affects (click any count to jump to a filtered Bots or Pages view). --> Pages report grouping. Break down results by page, by page and bot, or by page, bot, and status, with status codes shown as columns or distribution charts. Both available for AI bots.

🎊 NEW in Social Media Manager: --> Now supports YouTube Shorts --> The Comments Inbox shows likes and replies per comment

🎯 NEW in Brand Radar: We've doubled our prompt dataset from 14M → 30M prompts per AI platform to capture more of the questions people ask AI. What to expect in your reports: --> Mention/citation counts increased for everyone after mid-July due to the bigger dataset --> Responses for new prompts are still being collected, so numbers may keep growing over the coming weeks --> Relative metrics (share of voice, competitor position) stay reliable throughout --> ~5% of prompts are refreshed monthly to keep the pool current See article for more details help.ahrefs.com/en/articles/…

🔍 NEW in Site Explorer: See how many Top pages show up in AI responses across platforms, directly in the Top pages report (sortable, exportable, and available via API). Available only with the corresponding Brand Radar subscriptions: AI Visibility Index or Custom prompts tracking.

🔍 NEW in Search Explorer: Introducing 'Adaptive', a new traffic estimation model in Site Explorer. Traffic estimates now account for 15 SERP features, including AI Overviews and featured snippets, as they reduce clicks for everyone else, but earn traffic for the sites ranking in them. Traffic estimates are also re-adjusted monthly against Web Analytics data, accounting for SERP composition, volume changes, crawl frequency, and more. Switch to 'Adaptive' in Site Explorer settings, or use traffic_mode=adaptive in the API, and compare it against the old model.

📋 NEW in Report Builder: --> Brand Radar reports available in the AI visibility widget (inc. tracked prompts, tags, and project scope carried over automatically) --> Site Explorer history widgets available for organic positions and organic keywords history charts

🎯 NEW in Brand Radar: We're switching from Google search volume to AI-adjusted volume for more realistic prompt volume and impression estimates. Each prompt's volume is now its parent keyword's Google volume × a platform ratio, based on how much that platform is used compared to Google. This reflects how the same prompt has different volume per platform. Want the old numbers? A toggle in every report header switches back until August 31, 2026.

Prompt-based indexes capture full, conversational answers the way people talk to ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity. Search-based indexes capture the AI answers triggered by short, traditional search queries, the way people search via Google. Select the ones you wish to measure your AI visibility against.
