    I have a python script that checks links status code.

    Here is the code 

    import requests
response = requests.get("https://passivebook.com/go/bluehost/", timeout=150)
response.status_code

    The code always returns 403 for Thirsty Affiliate Links. The links work otherwise. What can I do to fix this?

    Hi,

    There’s likely some sort of firewall set up either through a plugin or through your hosting provider that’s issuing a 403 error when the request is being made through code so you might try temporarily disabling any security solutions you have set up and see if that allows the request to be made correctly.
