    Schedule your scraping scripts to run at regular intervals, so the data remains up-to-date.Some people set up scrapers with change-detection, so the script only re-scrapes when content updates.

    Use cloud cron jobs or serverless functions to trigger scrapers automatically, especially for high-frequency updates.

    If you’re working with events, add timestamps and organize data by relevance in a database to keep it fresh.

    Monitor content for specific changes, like modified timestamps or version numbers, to prioritize new data.
