If you use a script-driven app for your website, any information that both you and the site users produce will be stored inside a database - an accumulation of information, which is structured in cells and tables for simpler reading and writing. The latter is carried out through special software referred to as database management system and one of the most widely used ones globally is MySQL. A lot of script applications are built to work with MySQL since it is user-friendly, it works perfectly on a website hosting server and it's universal as it can function with common web programming languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java) and on a number of web server Operating Systems (UNIX, Linux, Windows). There are huge amounts of scripts which use MySQL, including really popular ones for instance WordPress, Moodle and Joomla™.
