it will really depend on what you are serving, and what degree of
complexity you can afford.
If you have online application that make use of session and other user
tracking technology, your problem will not be the same as if you serve
only static data with no user traking.

A quick and dirty solution is round robin DNS (the load balancing is
made by the DNS)

But expansive solutions exists too, based on the use of
webcache/webproxy appliances that will do the load ballancing for you.
