 * Hi [@tomeryatir](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomeryatir/)!
 * It could be that the host/site itself is blocking the request.
 * Can you please share your CSV file with us so we can test it?
 * Cheers!

 * [@rynald0s](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rynald0s/) hey, it seems to be
   the issue, though other importers (not the default one) could bypass it.
 * As for the blockage, is it server related or w/p related?

 * Hi [@tomeryatir](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomeryatir/)!
 * That would be server related and you can check it with your hosting provider.
 * Cheers!
