Question: Does Ahrefs Crawl Quora?
From our understanding, Ahrefs does not crawl Quora. Quora contains millions (maybe billions) of outgoing and internal links. Sites like Quora, LinkedIn, and Twitter have either prevented Ahrefs from crawling, or have only allowed a partial crawling of their site. With the Ahrefs crawler, they can find backlinks, keyword data, and google rankings. According to Ahrefs, “every 24 hours our crawler visits over 6 billion web pages and updates Ahrefs’ index every 15-30 minutes.”
