Hi Ruben, I'll give my opinion as a LyX user and as the maintainer of a large website (>200pages, >2000 distinct IP visits per day). My answer -- It depends :-) My site is primarily content and very little appearance, and different subsites have different "rules and customs". So I use Netscape Composer. If I wanted a website with an identical look and feel throughout, I'd probably use LyX with custom environments -- or maybe I'd use a product like Zope. If I were making a document that should be both HTML and paper or pdf, LyX would be an excellent choice. I want a little too much control (alternatively called fine tuning) to author Troubleshooters.Com with LyX. But online docs that are also paper -- heck yes.
