Best Practices for Using wget to Scrape URLs: Any Tips or Pitfalls to Avoid?

Yo! If you’re new to wget scrape urls, start small. Don’t go crazy with recursive downloads right away.

For avoiding blocks, use `--header` to add custom headers. Some sites block based on missing headers.

Also, check out `--convert-links` to make downloaded files work offline. Super useful for local testing.
