Allow city-level SERP selection in Keywords Explorer (Local SEO)
S
SEOTIME
Currently, Keywords Explorer only allows country-level SERP previews. However, SERPs can vary significantly between cities, especially with Google's increasing focus on personalization and local results.
For SEO professionals preparing proposals or doing quick competitive research, being able to preview city-specific SERPs without setting up a full Rank Tracker project would save a lot of time and provide more accurate insights.
Suggested improvement:
Add an option in Keywords Explorer to select a specific city or ZIP code (similar to Rank Tracker), so users can preview the local SERP directly when entering a keyword.
This would enable faster, more accurate local SEO analysis — especially useful for agencies, consultants, and freelancers working across multiple regions.

Add City-Level Search Volume Data for Local SEO Analysis
S
SEOTIME
It would be highly useful if Ahrefs could provide search volume data and keyword suggestions at the city level, not just at the country level.
Currently, local businesses targeting specific cities (e.g. Oslo, Drammen, Bergen) lack the necessary insight to:
See how many people search for a specific keyword in a particular city,
Receive keyword ideas that are relevant to a specific city (not country-wide terms), and
Understand local SERP competitiveness based on actual city-level intent and demand.
Adding this functionality would make Ahrefs a much stronger tool for Local SEO specialists.
We often manage multi-location SEO campaigns where this level of granularity is essential for effective planning and prioritization.
Thanks for considering this enhancement — it would be a huge step forward for local SEO professionals.

Search Volume by City and State
John V.
Please provide search volume options by state and city. ahrefs is at a disadvantage because it only provide search volume at a country level.

They have this information, but for marketing economical control do not offer it

This would be a great feature to add, for companies that are looking to do local SEO for states not just a whole country. It would give better data on keywords.
Aditya Aman
This would be great as some of the keywords are more centered towards a city. Looking forward to this update

Really need this, as the only other way to get it in ahrefs is to add the city to the search term, but most local searchers won't do that and will just search by keyword.

Mangools.com does this. It's not ahrefs by a longshot, but it creates a much better keyword picture for area-specific rankings
