Key Features For Link Building<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You are convinced you can\u2019t continue the link building journey without SEO tools and have learned a little about Ahrefs. Then, it\u2019s time to explore Ahrefs super helpful link building features.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ahrefs <em>Site Explorer<\/em> Feature<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first feature we mention gives an overview of the website\u2019s current performance. Here are some essential metrics when it comes to link building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DR (Domain Rating)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Domain Rating (DR) is an extremely important metric by Ahrefs that showcases the strength and authority of a website&#8217;s backlink profile on a scale from 0 to 100.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is interesting to know is that <a href=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/ahrefs-seo-metrics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">44% of SEO professionals<\/a> use Ahrefs&#8217; Domain Rating as their SEO metric of choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this case, the website&#8217;s DR is 87, which is quite impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"366\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/saynine.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ahrefs-site-explorer-dr-1024x366.png\" alt=\"Ahrefs Site Explorer feaure showing the DR of a website.\" class=\"wp-image-9895\" srcset=\"https:\/\/saynine.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ahrefs-site-explorer-dr-1024x366.png 1024w, https:\/\/saynine.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ahrefs-site-explorer-dr-600x214.png 600w, https:\/\/saynine.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ahrefs-site-explorer-dr-400x143.png 400w, https:\/\/saynine.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ahrefs-site-explorer-dr-768x274.png 768w, https:\/\/saynine.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ahrefs-site-explorer-dr-300x107.png 300w, https:\/\/saynine.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ahrefs-site-explorer-dr.png 1472w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Traffic<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This metric shows an estimated number of monthly visits the website gets from organic search.

If we filter the DR up to 50 and the Traffic up to 3,000 like in the example below, you might find out that a good number of them are from domains with lower metrics.

Let\u2019s do this with Ahrefs <em>Content Explorer<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the search bar, you need to write a topic relevant to the industry and choose <em>In title<\/em> from the dropdown.
