A surge in traffic has led to a server overload, resulting in an error message ‘429 Too Many Requests’. This phenomenon occurs when a website receives more requests than it can handle within a specified time frame.
Common causes of this issue include:
* High traffic volume from social media or online advertising
* Unstable or poorly optimized server infrastructure
* Malicious bots and scraping scripts
To mitigate such issues, webmasters often implement rate limiting measures to restrict the number of requests made to their servers. However, when these limits are exceeded, it can lead to downtime and a poor user experience.
In some cases, repeated offenders may be blocked by IP addresses or required to perform additional verification steps before accessing restricted content.
