Every time a visitor opens your website, the web browser sends a request to the web server, which in turn executes it and supplies the necessary content as a response. A basic HTML website uses minimum system resources because it is static, but database-driven platforms are more demanding and use a lot more processing time. Every page that's served creates two forms of load - CPU load, which depends on the length of time the hosting server spends executing a specific script; and MySQL load, that depends on the number of database queries generated by the script while the customer browses the site. Greater load shall be generated if a considerable amount of people browse a given website at the same time or if numerous database calls are made at the same time. 2 good examples are a discussion board with thousands of users or an online store in which a customer enters a term within a search box and thousands of items are searched. Having in depth data about the load which your site generates will allow you to improve the content or see if it's the perfect time to switch to a more powerful type of hosting service, if the website is simply getting very popular.
