    The easiest way will be to find the source code for a program that comes close to what you are planning to build and modify the source. It's a great way to learn the ropes....

      If you are already feeling comfortable with C# and PHP there is no reason to learn another language.

      Just go and check what libraries and functions are available to parse HTML, download webpages and so on.

      Do, what all programmers should do: Divide the problem into smaller problems, if you do this well enough then the problems are usually small enough so that there is a function that tackles this problem available.

      All you have to do then is to tailor them all together, so that the final program solves the big problem.
