If Bright Data is blocking too many requests, the best fix depends on why they’re being blocked. Common causes include rate limits, target-site anti-bot defenses, bad session handling, or patterns that look automated.
I can help you reduce blocks in a legit, compliant way, for example by:
- Throttling requests and adding randomized delays
- Rotating sessions/IPs correctly if your plan supports it
- Reusing cookies and browser state instead of starting fresh each time
- Reducing concurrency and retrying with backoff
- Using the right product mode:
- residential/datacenter proxy
- browser automation
- scraping browser / unlocker
- Improving request fingerprint consistency
- Checking target-side robots/terms and making sure your use is allowed
If you want, paste:
- what Bright Data product you’re using,
- the kind of target site,
- the block/error message, and
- your current request pattern (rate, concurrency, retries),
and I’ll suggest concrete adjustments.
