<b>Majestic vs Ahrefs for judging ONE prospect's links</b>

<b>Majestic vs Ahrefs for judging ONE prospect's links</b>
Narrow job: you're vetting a guest-post site. Which tool, cheaper?

<b>Majestic</b>
➕ Trust Flow vs Citation Flow ratio instantly flags link-scheme sites (high CF, low TF = spam network)
➕ Topical Trust Flow shows if their links are relevant to YOUR niche
➕ Cheaper entry plan than Ahrefs
➖ Crawl is slower to pick up brand-new links; no traffic estimates

<b>Ahrefs</b>
➕ Pairs link data with traffic estimate — spot the "high DR, zero traffic" PBN instantly
➖ Overkill (and pricier) if all you do is vet donors

<b>Best for:</b> Majestic for pure link-quality vetting at volume. Ahrefs when you also need the traffic reality-check.

<b>Price-vs-value:</b> for outreach vetting alone, Majestic is the cost-smart choice.

Pick Majestic if you vet dozens of donor sites a week.
Skip it if you need traffic data to spot PBNs — that's Ahrefs' edge.
