I recommend running a somewhat hardened operating system (Linux, *BSD,
especially, virtualized (jails, virtual guests) to compartmentalize
services and contain potential compromises) and use low-resource 
high-performance web servers (e.g. nginx) and also
offer hardened web services (e.g. anything PHP is terribly difficult
to make water-tight, and many PHP developers are completely 
threat-ignorant, so caveat emptor).

There should be a FAQ/HOWTO for something like that.
