GET http://example.com/backup > /dev/null
wget http://example.com/backup
curl -s http://example.com/backup > /dev/null
wget -q -O /dev/null "http://example.com/backup" > /dev/null 2>&1

Using CRON jobs to visit url?
CRON command to run URL address every 5 minutes
842
It is a wildcard for every part of the cron schedule expression. So * * * * * means every minute of every hour of every day of every month and every day of the week . 0 1 * * * - this means the cron will run always at 1 o'clock. * 1 * * * - this means the cron will run each minute when the hour is 1.
use this
wget -q -O - http://example.com/backup >/dev/null 2>&1
instead of
wget -q -O /dev/null "http://example.com/backup" > /dev/null 2>&1
wget -q -O /dev/null "http://example.com/backup" > /dev/null 2>&1
