+In the folder //**/etc/apache2**// there is a file called //**apache2.conf**//. We need to edit this file.
 \\
+\\
+        sudo nano /etc/apacde2.conf
+\\
+In the apache2.conf look for the section that points to the default site (which is normally /var/www)
+\\
+        <Directory /var/www/>
+                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
+                AllowOverride All
+                Require all granted
+        </Directory>
+\\
+We need to copy and paste this section for each site we wish to create.\\
+\\
+In this example we will have two websites, site one and site2, and they are located in the following place:
+\\
+\\
+/home/pi/site1\\
+/home/pi/site2\\
+\\
+\\
+So we need to add two sections to the /etc/apache2.conf
+\\
+        <Directory /home/pi/site1/>
+                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
+                AllowOverride All
+                Require all granted
+        </Directory>
+        <Directory /home/pi/site2/>
+                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
+                AllowOverride All
+                Require all granted
+        </Directory>
+\\
+Save this file and exit back to the command line.
+\\
+\\
+now we need to navigate to the folder //**/etc/apache2/sites-enabled**// and edit the file //**000-default.conf**//
+\\
+        sudo /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
+\\
+Use the hash # to comment out every line
+\\
+\\
+Now add the following:
+\\
+    <VirtualHost *:80>
+        ServerAdmin al@nwalker.co.uk
+        ServerName site1.alanwalker.eu --- (this has to match the url of your website)
+        DocumentRoot /home/pi/site1 --- (this is where your website is physically in linux)
+        DirectoryIndex index.html --- (this is the first page of your website)
+    </VirtualHost>
+    <VirtualHost *:80>
+        ServerAdmin al@nwalker.co.uk
+        ServerName site2.alanwalker.eu --- (this has to match the url of your website)
+        DocumentRoot /home/pi/site2 --- (this is where your website is physically in linux)
+        DirectoryIndex index.html --- (this is the first page of your website)
+    </VirtualHost>
+\\
+Don't forget to restart the apache web server:
+\\
+        sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
+\\
+\\
+Now if I navigate to //**site1.alanwalker.eu**// I get:
+\\
+\\
+{{:site1.png|}}
+\\
+\\
+\\
+\\
+If I navigate to //**site.alanwalker.eu**// I get:
+\\
+\\
+{{:site2.png|}}
+\\
