pH7Client - Make your Tasks on Autopilot by Automating them!
============================================================

[](#ph7client---make-your-tasks-on-autopilot-by-automating-them)

**pH7Client** is a wonderful tool if you need to automate tasks (like posting articles every day to your blog, add message in a member area, etc) and save lot of times everyday! 😃 Yes! The pH7Client bot can do almost everything (you just need to create some rules and need to know the input name of the website's forms). In fact, it's a PHP Web client class that simulates a Web browser for retrieving webpage content, login to websites and posting forms, ...

Finally, you have created rules that you want to automate by pH7Client, you need to setup a cron for executing the script every X time on a server (Type `crontab -e` on your server Linux terminal, then add the desired cron jobs and save it). Once finished, go to the beach, order a mojito and enjoy your REAL free time that you really deserved!
