Hi,

There are many ways by which a website/application can be built using Perl. 
Mainly:

* CGI
* mod_perl
* Any web framework

All of the above have modules in CPAN. For simple tasks and for websites with 
not much traffic, you can go the CGI way. For much more complex tasks, you have 
the choice to choose between mod_perl or a web framework such as Catalyst.

The Catalyst Web Framework (http://www.catalystframework.org/) helps in 
getting an application up and running in a few moments. It also has several 
modules backing it.

The disadvantage of using Perl for web development is that it is a bit hard to 
deploy. However, the advantages outweigh the disadvantage by a considerable 
margin.

Regards,
Alan Haggai Alavi.
