TIP - How to setup cron in limited hosting environment
 

Problem:

you need to deploy site to the customer hosting. For some reason customer can not provide you with Cron enabled hosting solution.

What can be done as an internim solution?

Solution

As an internim solution I would recommend spanish resource WebCron. It allows scheduled calls of the urls on your site. It could be best solution if you have for example homepage hosted on a free hosting :)

you definitely need to agree with customer to change hosting to another one that supports own cron control from the hosting control panel.
