Make Raspberry Pi SD card last longer

If you have one Raspberry Pi always on or running several hours every day, probably you also had some SD card faults.

Unfortunately SD cards have a limited number of writings allowed. After that number the internal electronics is no more reliable and there could be read/write errors.

Debian usually do several writings on the os partitions, so the maximum writing cycles is rapidly reached.

So, what could we do to make the sd last longer with our RPi?
