C as back-end of a website service

I know nothing about web development but I am trying to figure out how to use a C program that i created to communicate with a website made in HTML. I've done a bit of research and it seems i can use PHP to call the C program with an exec command which will create a new process. From my understanding PHP makes HTML dynamic so what i'm trying to do is pass information from C to the PHP part that modifies my HTML code to display up to date information. Is there any other way to communicate information besides the exec command?

Have you looked into CGI? I understand that's what is used to run payment systems and so on. I have no experience myself but that should get you started.
