And there\u2019s absolutely no way to get it right from the first go. As well as from the second or third&nbsp;one.<\/p>\n<p>From time to time we might discover some minor issues with our link index, fixing which requires us to rebuild it from the scratch.<\/p>\n<p>And one of such rebuilds was completed this month. *happy*<\/p>\n<p>One of the things that we\u2019ve fixed this time is the \u201cLinked domains\u201d report for subdomains and subfolders:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/link-domains-report.jpg\" alt width=\"900\" height=\"1036\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16036\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/link-domains-report.jpg 900w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/link-domains-report-768x884.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/link-domains-report-369x425.jpg 369w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\"><\/p>\n<p>Previously this report was showing data for the entire domain at all times, even when you were using subdomain or subfolder as your target.

Position distribution history<\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019ve added a new set of graphs to the Overview report in <a href=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/site-explorer\">Site Explorer<\/a> (Organic Search tab):<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/position-distribution-history.jpg\" alt width=\"900\" height=\"484\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/position-distribution-history.jpg 900w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/position-distribution-history-768x413.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/position-distribution-history-680x366.jpg 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\"><\/p>\n<p>This adds an additional layer of insight to the total number of keywords that a target website ranks for in top100.<\/p>\n<p>These same graphs can also be seen in \u201cOrganic Keywords\u201d &gt; \u201cNew\u201d report, where you can actually filter out the new keywords in each&nbsp;group:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/new-keywords-in-each-group.jpg\" alt width=\"900\" height=\"815\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16025\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/new-keywords-in-each-group.jpg 900w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/new-keywords-in-each-group-768x695.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/new-keywords-in-each-group-469x425.jpg 469w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\"><\/p>\n<h2>3. http\/https protocol picker<\/h2>\n<p>I\u2019m sure many of you have noticed this new little feature without any special announcement:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/http-http-protocol-picker.jpg\" alt width=\"900\" height=\"724\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16026\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/http-http-protocol-picker.jpg 900w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/http-http-protocol-picker-768x618.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/http-http-protocol-picker-528x425.jpg 528w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\"><\/p>\n<p>The thing is (even when you have all the proper redirects in place) <strong>http:\/\/url<\/strong> and <strong>https:\/\/url<\/strong> are technically two different URLs.
