Have you considered using MQTT?

Have a look here https://www.baldengineer.com/mqtt-tutorial.html for a setup on a Pi.

Another option would be to use UDP messages.

See here for a ESP UDP sender https://github.com/jxmot/ESP8266-udp

See her for a PHP UDP listener https://www.binarytides.com/udp-socket-programming-in-php/

I have used UDP in the past using a Python listener, easy peasy! Cannot offer you the code as disk trashed by Win 10!
