Cloudflare is a Content Delivery Network that helps you secure your site. Sometimes, Cloudflare blocks our servers from accessing this page. In this article, we explain how you can fix this.
SiteGuru is a verified bot
SiteGuru is recognized by Cloudflare as a verified bot. If your site uses Cloudflare Bot Fight Mode, SiteGuru scans are less likely to be blocked automatically. If you use stricter Cloudflare WAF rules or Super Bot Fight Mode, you may still need to allow verified bots or add a rule for SiteGuru.

It's easy to fix this. Follow the following steps:
- Log into your Cloudflare account
- Go to the Security tab in Cloudflare
- Click WAF in the submenu
- Click the Create Rule button
- Set the Field to User Agent
- Set the Operator to contains

- Click Deploy
