I want to download web using wget, but to make it more like a real user I would like to make small random delays between requests. I'm executing wget via cmd.

When running Wget with ' -r ' or ' -p ', but without ' -N ', ' -nd ', or ' -nc ', re-downloading a file will result in the new copy simply overwriting the old. Adding ' -nc ' will prevent this behavior, instead causing the original version to be preserved and any newer copies on the server to be ignored.
The wget tool is essentially a spider that scrapes / leeches web pages but some web hosts may block these spiders with the robots. txt files. Also, wget will not follow links on web pages that use the rel=nofollow attribute. You can however force wget to ignore the robots.
The ' -r ' option is to retrieve recursively, and ' -nd ' to not create directories. Note that ' --delete-after ' deletes files on the local machine.
You can use it to retrieve content and files from various web servers. The name is a combination of World Wide Web and the word get. It supports downloads via FTP, SFTP, HTTP, and HTTPS. Wget is created in portable C and usable on any Unix system.
You can add the below code into your command line which adds a ten second wait in between server requests.
-w 10
And you can also include
--random-wait
Into your command line with -w option which will vary the wait by 0.5 and 1.5 times the value you provide here.
