I've been interested in the idea of having a user-facing website that generates static copies of its dynamic content on a set schedule. Do any of you have more examples of this?

About this particular search engine, though, the search results I received from it either were not very relevant or the service did not display information that made them seem relevant (such as a snippet of text from the page — it did this occasionally but not always).

You can do this relatively easily using Github actions. For example, https://oliverjam.es/blog/schedule-netlify-github-actions/
