Since 1.5 hours ago, Google limits how many /goto result links can be followed per results page right after it’s served.

We now resolve the top 3 organic links (one by one instead of concurrently, which results into higher latency for now); the rest come back as google.com/goto links. Those still work in a browser and resolve fine after ~2 min.

If you prefer max speed, pass resolveLinks: false and we skip resolving entirely.

This affects anyone resolving Google’s /goto links. We're still actively looking into it.

Google just made a change impacting our ability to resolve all returned /goto links. You'll see more results with unresolved /goto links. Latency is also currently higher because the links need to be resolved sequentially instead of concurrently. We're actively looking into it.
