Ahrefs bug?

[Ed30]

Has anyone else noticed that Ahrefs backlink checker started showing distorted statitics? For instance, I have a 30+ DR domain with 300 referring domains. Now suddenly the tool started showing only 3 referring domains all the while the rest are shown in the list below as previously.

Yes.
I confirm it showing nonsenses now.

I can confirm this as well, sadly. One of my newer websites right now has only 9 ref domains when just last week when I went over all of my projects, I had 83+ ref domains & 145 backlinks. Strangely enough, it does not say that I lost any ref domains.

It just says that I once had 3, then 6, then 9 ref domains. However, I manually created the link profile for this website.

Note: It's also the only website in my projects list that has any abnormal change in the referring domains/backlinks area. Everything else is ship shape.

works for me if i put in like https://example.com instead of just example.com . Anyway it's just a bug on their side, so nothing to worry about

Yep, lol. The same happens to me. Semrush nowadays is so much better!

Ahrefs is paid too. The free backlink checker don't show you all data.

but in most cases the free version is enough
