## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured Ahrefs public data — website rankings, domain authority scores, traffic estimates, or trending site lists — without managing a browser or Ahrefs account. Especially useful for competitive SEO research, domain vetting, or market landscape analysis at $0.025 per call with no charge for failed runs.

## Known failure modes

- Empty result if the domain has no public Ahrefs detail page (not charged)
- Invalid country or category slug returns no results or an error
- Requesting more than 1000 items is capped at the maximum allowed
- Domains without public traffic data return null fields
- Network or scraping failures result in no charge but an empty response

## How this service works
