Reduce la frecuencia de rastreo de Google
La infraestructura del rastreador de Google tiene algoritmos sofisticados para determinar la frecuencia de rastreo óptima de un sitio. Nuestro objetivo es rastrear la mayor cantidad posible de páginas de tu sitio en cada visita sin sobrecargar el servidor. En algunos casos, el rastreo que hace Google de tu sitio puede ocasionar una carga crítica en la infraestructura o generar costos no deseados durante una interrupción. Para solucionar este problema, puedes reducir la cantidad de solicitudes que realizan los rastreadores de Google.
Comprende la causa del aumento repentino del rastreo
Un aumento abrupto en el rastreo puede deberse a ineficiencias de la estructura de tu sitio o a otro tipo de problemas con él. Según los informes que recibimos en el pasado, las causas más comunes son las siguientes:
Configuración ineficiente de las URLs en el sitio, que suele deberse a una funcionalidad
específica del sitio:
Navegación por facetas o alguna otra función de ordenamiento y filtrado del sitio
Un calendario con muchas URLs para fechas específicas
Reduce de forma urgente el tráfico del rastreador (para emergencias)
Si necesitas reducir la frecuencia de rastreo de manera urgente durante un período breve (por ejemplo, un par de horas, o uno o dos días), devuelve códigos de estado de respuesta HTTP 500, 503 o 429, en lugar del código 200, a las solicitudes de rastreo. La infraestructura de rastreo de Google reduce la frecuencia de rastreo de tu sitio cuando encuentra una cantidad significativa de URLs con códigos de estado de respuesta HTTP 500, 503 o 429 (por ejemplo, si inhabilitaste tu sitio web).
La frecuencia de rastreo reducida afecta a todo el nombre de host de tu sitio (por ejemplo, subdomain.example.com), el rastreo de las URLs que devuelven errores y el de las que devuelven contenido. Una vez que se reduzca la cantidad de errores, la frecuencia de rastreo comenzará a aumentar automáticamente otra vez.
Solicitudes excepcionales para reducir la frecuencia de rastreo
Si, debido a tu infraestructura, no puedes mostrar errores a los rastreadores de Google, envía una solicitud especial para informar un problema con una frecuencia de rastreo inusualmente alta, en la que menciones la frecuencia óptima para tu sitio. No puedes solicitar un aumento en la frecuencia de rastreo, y la evaluación y concreción de la solicitud puede tardar varios días.

Common causes for increased crawling include inefficient site structure, like faceted navigation. For urgent reductions, return `500`, `503`, or `429` HTTP status codes to crawler requests; this will lower the crawl rate, but can negatively affect site indexing if done for too long. Alternatively, if returning errors isn't viable, submit a special request specifying an optimal crawl rate. Note: reducing the crawl rate will result in slower updates of existing pages.\n"],null,["# Reduce Google Crawl Rate | Google Search Central\n\nReduce the Google crawl rate\n============================\n\n\nGoogle's crawler infrastructure has sophisticated algorithms to determine the optimal crawl rate\nfor a site. Our goal is to crawl as many pages from your site as we can on each visit without\noverwhelming your server. In some cases, Google's crawling of your site might be causing a\ncritical load on your infrastructure, or cause unwanted costs during an outage. To alleviate this,\nyou may decide to reduce the number of requests made by Google's crawlers.\n\nUnderstand the cause of the sharp increase in crawling\n------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nSharp increase in crawling may be caused by inefficiencies in your site's structure or issues with\nyour site otherwise. Based on the reports we've received in the past, the most common causes are:\n\n- Inefficient configuration of URLs on the site, which is typically casued by a specific functionality of the site:\n - Faceted navigation or other sorting and filtering functionality of the site\n - A calendar with a lot of URLs for specific dates\n- [A Dynamic Search Ad target](/search/docs/crawling-indexing/large-site-managing-crawl-budget#adsbot)\n\n\nWe strongly recommend that you check with your hosting company and look at recent access logs of\nyour server to understand the source of the traffic, and see if it fits in the aformentioned\ncommon causes of the sharp increase in crawling. Then, check our guides about\n[managing crawling of faceted navigation URLs](/search/docs/crawling-indexing/crawling-managing-faceted-navigation)\nand\n[optimizing crawling efficiency](/search/docs/crawling-indexing/large-site-managing-crawl-budget#improve_crawl_efficiency).\n\nUrgently reduce crawler traffic (for emergencies)\n-------------------------------------------------\n\n| **Warning**: When considering reducing the Google's crawl rate, keep in mind that this will have broad effects. For Search, Googlebot will discover fewer new pages, and existing pages will be refreshed less frequently (for example, prices and product availability may take longer to be reflected in Search), and removed pages may stay in the index longer. For Google Ads, your campaigns may be cancelled or paused, and your ads may not serve.\n\n\nIf you need to urgently reduce the crawl rate for short period of time (for example, a couple\nof hours, or 1-2 days), then return `500`, `503`, or `429` HTTP\nresponse status code instead of `200` to the crawl requests. Google's crawling\ninfrastructure reduces your site's crawling rate when it encounters a significant number of URLs\nwith `500`, `503`, or `429` HTTP response status codes (for\nexample, if you\n[disabled your website](/search/docs/crawling-indexing/pause-online-business)).\nThe reduced crawl rate affects the whole hostname of your site (for example,\n`subdomain.example.com`), both the crawling of the URLs that return errors, as well as\nthe URLs that return content. Once the number of these errors is reduced, the crawl rate will\nautomatically start increasing again.\n| **Warning**: We don't recommend that you do this for a long period of time (meaning, longer than 1-2 days) as it may have a negative effect on how your site appears in Google products. For example, in case of Search, if Googlebot observes these status codes on the same URL for multiple days, the URL may be dropped from Google's index.\n\nExceptional requests to reduce crawl rate\n-----------------------------------------\n\n\nIf serving errors to Google's crawlers is not feasible on your infrastructure,\n[file a special request](https://search.google.com/search-console/googlebot-report)\nto report a problem with unusually high crawl rate, mentioning the optimal rate for your site in\nyour request. You cannot request an increase in crawl rate, and it may take several days for the\nrequest to be evaluated and fulfilled."]]
