Just host the MySQL database somewhere else and disable logs for web server, so that your SD card won't die from lots of writes. I think Pi can handle ~100 users per day without a problem, maybe even more.
Sure, PI can be a great solution depending on your project.
@Vita, I think with a PI2 you can even run Varnish and use ram for even more users.
It might be better than a shared hosting solution for some cases.
@raysmta sent you a present in PM
That's still not a complete solution. For example you should also ensure /var/lib/mysql is also there if you use MySQL. And also the OS writes to other dirs anyway, such as /var/log/*
Maybe one simple step further for you would be to move all of /var/* to the USB disk.
MySQL is offloaded to not needed. But as for your /var might be a better solution. Will trial it on a test pi
