  • The target site has rate limits that the crawler exceeded
  • The site detected automated crawling and blocked further requests
  • Too many pages were crawled in a short time period
  • The target site's API or CDN has request quotas
  • Anti-bot protection is limiting crawler access
  • Reduce the crawl depth to limit the number of pages crawled
  • Increase the crawl period to spread requests over a longer time
