Automating dull, boring, repetitive tasks can be like a breath of fresh air…and there’s a slick program called Internet Macros that can help you automate just about any task you perform online.  Internet Macros is not new.  I’ve had it for a couple of years but I hadn’t used in a long time until last week.

In the past, I’ve used it to automate things in cpanel like creating new domains, email accounts, etc.  If you’re only creating one domain, email address, etc. there’s not much benefit to using Internet Macros, but the best part is that there is a loop feature that allows you to run a macro using a .csv file to create multiple domains or email accounts at once at the click of a button.

To set up a macro, all you have to do is goto the website you’re using and record yourself actually peforming the task.  Internet Macros has a record feature which makes this simple.  Then to transform it into a loop, just follow the format on one of the sample macros that comes with the program.

In the version I have, the macro is called “Demo-Loop-Csv-2-Web”.  Just use the same format with your macro, create a .csv file with the values, and you’re done.  Sometimes Internet Macros will get “stuck” and time out.  That can be a bit of a pain but all you have to do is figure out where the macro got stuck and restart it from there.  The whole process is actually very simple.

There are several versions of the program.  The scripting edition costs $499 and the PRO edition costs $199 but you don’t need those.  I’m using the Power Surfer edition which is currently $49.95 and there’s a 30-day trial version you can use for free to see if you like the program.

It looks like you can get it for $29.95 through my affiliate link.  I’m unable to log in to my RegNow account but I have this link and it offers the Internet Macros Power Surfer Edition for $29.95.  It might be an older edition but I’m using an older edition myself and it works fine.
