Here's how to set it up. In the Library pane, select Internet. Click the Add button to attach a new item to the URL list. Type the URL of the site you want to open and press Return. Repeat this step for each additional URL you want to open automatically. When you're done adding URLs, drag Display Webpages to the workflow pane, just below the previous action.
When you've added the applications and URLs to your workflow, here's how to test and save it. Test your workflow to make sure it functions correctly by clicking the Run button at the top-right corner of Automator.
Automator runs the workflow. Check to be sure that all the applications opened, as well as any folders you may have included. If you wanted to open your browser to a specific page, make sure the correct page loaded. After you confirm that the workflow works as expected, save it as an application. To do so, select Save under the File menu. Enter a name and location for your workflow application and click Save.
Saving the workflow creates an application on your computer. Double-click it to run the actions you specified. Because it works just like any other Mac application, you can also click and drag the workflow application to the Dock or to a Finder window sidebar or toolbar. These instructions are just two of the things Automator can do. It contains a variety of commands for several different applications, including Mail, Music, and System Preferences.
Actively scan device characteristics for identification. Use precise geolocation data. Select personalised content. Create a personalised content profile. Measure ad performance. Select basic ads.

Or Keyboard Maestro. We'd be here all day if you let us talk about Keyboard Maestro. You can use that for everything we've described here, including the Hazel actions, and then do so much more that we're still learning it. That's all very nice for us, though, and it could be very nice for you. For now, though, just take a few minutes to look at the possibilities in even one-step Automator actions and you will get hooked.
