First: link should be with https://

2nd!
Using PHP CURL is better option which you can use fake referral, custom header and other small things.
And also, you need to replace original website link with your own, so incase someone click on that link it won't redirect to original server.

with 2 line code it's not going to clone.

Thanks,

I've tried this but because of the html source that we want to 'clone' are using relative path making the 'clone' site broken. All assets sources (mostly images and scripts) are pointing to the wrong url which is new domain url instead of the old one.

I know this could be solved by doing some rework on the code, like find and replace those relative path to absolute path of the site that we want to be cloned.

You can use Httrack software, you can clone complete website along with inner pages with working menu if it is a simple static site.
