Each time a visitor opens your site, the Internet browser sends a request to the server, which in turn executes it and provides the necessary content as a response. A basic HTML website uses minimal resources because it is static, but database-driven platforms are more requiring and use a lot more processing time. Every single page which is served produces two types of load - CPU load, which depends on the amount of time the web server spends executing a particular script; and MySQL load, which depends on the total number of database queries created by the script while the client browses the site. Bigger load shall be created if a lot of people surf a particular site concurrently or if a lot of database calls are made all at once. 2 good examples are a discussion board with tens of thousands of users or an online store in which a customer enters a term in a search box and thousands of items are searched. Having detailed stats about the load your website generates will allow you to boost the content or see if it's the perfect time to switch to a more powerful type of web hosting service, if the site is simply getting very popular.
