For example: mkdir everydaylinuxuser cd everydaylinuxuser wget www.everydaylinuxuser.com The result is a single index.html file. On its own, this file is fairly useless as the content is still pulled from Google and the images and stylesheets are still all held on Google. To download the full site and all the pages you can use the following command: wget -r www.everydaylinuxuser.com This downloads the pages recursively up to a maximum of 5 levels deep. 5 levels deep might not be enough to get everything from the site.
