I even created a special page to explain this.
In the screenshot, we see 5,000 domains:
But if you look at the real links, there are only 500 under this filter—10 times less.
A NORM link is:
– dofollow
– DR > 10
– no more than 100 outgoing links from the page
– links to an HTML page
Here is the Ahrefs filter itself.
I have also introduced NORM links on my PBNs as a separate metric.
We don’t need all the links from Ahrefs; we only need those that can deliver real impact. And in my view, those are precisely NORM links.
UPDATE:
Thanks to Ahrefs for probably reading my channel and introducing a NORM LINKS FILTER (best links filter). However, I’m ready to consider job offers from Semrush for a few months to configure link features so that all domainers move to Semrush and forget Ahrefs and its credits like a bad dream. Plus, they shut down the old plans. 😔 😔
Under my old plan, I had 9,000 credits… I just can’t fit into your new pricing tiers.
