Title: Does a 400 Status Code mean the website is down?
Post by: datarecovee on Aug 25, 2025, 06:07 AM
No, a 400 Status Code indicate that the site is down. The server is up and working, but is actively refusing your particular request as being invalid. In the case that a site is offline, an error would normally say so in some other number of code i.e. 500 or connection failure rather than the 400 bad request error (https://datarecovee.com/error-400/).
