Well, C++ already has a couple of web frameworks : http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/main

I'm not sure that's a good idea though. It's hard to fail safely in a language that can fail silently. And failure modes include, not just blatant hacks into the underlying system, but surreptitious insertion that can propagate to all your visitors.

Besides the fact that it's pretty hard to find a decent C developer these days who's also interested in web development, you have a climate that's not exactly conducive to development in it. If it breaks or needs upgrading, will you do the work yourself? If it's that small, then it's probably not something you'd worry about too much, but then it's only on your shoulders.
