Why Ahrefs Users Also Need isMyWebOk

Ahrefs Credits are Precious

Ahrefs introduced a robust "Credit System". Scanning your client sites every day burns through these credits fast. You might run out of credits for prospecting!

With isMyWebOk: We don't have crawl credits. Monitor as many homepages as you like every single day. Save Ahrefs for the deep dives.

Real-Time Performance Alerts

Ahrefs Site Audit is typically scheduled weekly. If a site breaks on Monday, you might not know until next Monday. That's a week of lost revenue for your client.

With isMyWebOk: We scan daily. If the score drops, you get an email. Simple.

The "Client-Ready" Report

Have you ever tried to explain "Crawl Depth" or "Orphan Pages" to a restaurant owner? Ahrefs data is too complex for most clients.

With isMyWebOk: You send a beautifully branded report that says: "Your site speed is 95/100. Good job."

Smart Budget Allocation

Freelancer John was paying for extra credits in Ahrefs just to run weekly site audits for his 15 clients.

The Switch:

He stopped the scheduled weekly crawls in Ahrefs (saving credits).
He added isMyWebOk Agency (€69) for daily monitoring.
Result: He now checks clients DAILY (not weekly) and pays less overall.
