You start by replacing it with nginx... lol... Now serious, I still think that most people with small websites on dedicated servers are best of using nginx. I did just that, having used Apache for years with great satisfaction, at some point my website was killed by swapping death due to bots visiting and using excess memory. After that I started using lighttpd which was much better but memory leaks and stagnant development in that project brought me to nginx. I was sold when I deployed my website with it, it's so fast, small and stable that I never looked back. Sorry for this negative advert for Apache, but honesty forces me to call it bloatware by now, maybe this will happen to nginx too in a couple of years. Who knows.
