Ahrefs vs GrowGanic, common questions

Can Ahrefs write and publish articles for me now?

Partly. In 2026 Ahrefs added an agent whose blog pipeline researches, drafts, illustrates and formats a post for WordPress, and its own automation guide describes WordPress drafts with preview links emailed to you. The same guide is clear that nothing ships until you approve, and you supply the keyword each time. GrowGanic picks the topics itself and publishes on a schedule to a blog hosted on your own domain, or into WordPress, Shopify or HubSpot.

Is GrowGanic cheaper than Ahrefs?

They price different things. Ahrefs sells research plans with one user included, with extra users, AI features and the agent workspace sold on top, and the hours to approve and publish are still yours. GrowGanic's Free, Pro and Business plans include the research, writing, images and publishing, and your first article is free with no card.

Should I keep Ahrefs alongside GrowGanic?

If you run backlink analysis every day, Ahrefs is built for that work. GrowGanic does the part Ahrefs leaves to you: it picks the topics, writes, publishes and tracks the Google ranking of every article.

Your blog writes itself. You do nothing.
