90% of the internet uses MYSQL. Most host services provide it ready to run as part of your monthly fee.

Jcichy, the problem with pretty much any online database tool I can
think of is that you’ll need to work with some kind of scripting in
order to work with it. You can use phpMyAdmin as a front end (I do
regularly) but to get MySQL data into web pages you have to have some
form of scripting set up to request data, parse it, and weave the
result into a web page’s structure in some way.

This isn’t simple, but it is also far from nightmareish, if you’re
willing to take a deep breath and put some time into experimenting. I
have a couple of beginner guide articles online that should help a
bit:
