Is there a limit on how many pages I can crawl?

Can I see all my website’s backlinks with AWT?
Yes, and you can even export up to 1,000 rows per report and 10,000 rows per month. Add to that our vast number of sorting and filtering options, and you should be able to easily distill the most important backlink data.
Can I see all my website’s keywords with AWT?

Do I get this as a paying customer of Ahrefs?
