    Introduce sleep intervals between requests to avoid hitting the rate limits too quickly.

    Make use of proxy rotation to distribute your requests across different IP addresses.

    Retry failed requests with exponential backoff, which increases the wait time after each failure.

    Respect the site’s rate limits by throttling your scraper and making requests more slowly.

    Implement a timeout handler in your code to ensure your scraper doesn’t crash when a request takes too long.
