## Page.waitForTimeout() method
Causes your script to wait for the given number of milliseconds.
<b>Signature:</b>
```typescript
waitForTimeout(milliseconds: number): Promise<void>;
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| milliseconds | number | the number of milliseconds to wait. |
<b>Returns:</b>
Promise&lt;void&gt;
## Remarks
It's generally recommended to not wait for a number of seconds, but instead use [Page.waitForSelector()](./puppeteer.page.waitforselector.md), [Page.waitForXPath()](./puppeteer.page.waitforxpath.md) or [Page.waitForFunction()](./puppeteer.page.waitforfunction.md) to wait for exactly the conditions you want.
## Example
Wait for 1 second:
```
await page.waitForTimeout(1000);
```
