This month we’re introducing side-by-side page text comparison in Site Audit, no blinks mode in the Calendar report, and more. 

Let’s get right into it.

No blinks mode in Calendar report 

We’ve added a no blinks mode in the Calendar report that reduces link noise.

Just turn on this “Show domain recurrences toggle” to hide link recurrences, also known as link blinks, in your report. When hidden, only the first appearance of new domains or links is shown. Recurring disappearances are ignored, and considered lost only when the domain or link does not reappear.

 

Cluster keywords for Japanese language

You can now cluster keyword ideas for the Japanese language both by Parent Topic and by terms.

See changes in page text side-by-side

Before, how we displayed changes in page text tended to look quite messy.

Now, we’ve developed our own solution to render inline changes and switched to a side-by-side view.

You can now:

  • See both old and new content at once
  • See highlights for removed and added text

 

New “All in top 100″ checkbox

We’ve added an “All in top 100″ checkbox in the competitors’ positions filter in Content gap. This lets you create more complex rules like “at least one competitor in top 10 and all in top 100.”

More 2FA options

Before, you could only use one-time passwords generated by an app.

Now, we support hardware security keys like YubiKey and platform authenticators like Face ID, Touch ID, and Windows Hello. Just go to Account Settings > My account to add an authentication method like hardware security keys, your phone, or even your browser.

 

APIv3: Batch Analysis endpoint

We’ve just released the long-awaited Batch Analysis APIv3 endpoint, which lets you pull metrics for a bunch of URLs and domains in bulk.

Patches in Site Audit coming soon

Patches are fixes for your website that you can create and make directly in Site Audit issue reports.

If your pages get flagged for having too-short meta descriptions, all you have to do is click on “Patch it”, enter new meta descriptions, and hit publish to fix them on your website – no developers needed.

Sounds exciting? We have plenty more details in our blog post.

That’s all for this month. Check out the Ahrefs changelog for more updates, and leave any feature requests on our Canny. Enjoy!
