  Running two websites with one IP address - Redirect by URL Reply Contact I want to know if it’s possible to host two websites on the same server using the same port (80) and IP address. I am limited to using Microsoft IIS 7.0 not apache, but I can run PHP on it. (One of the sites is Joomla based) If I register two domain names to, example1.com and example2.com, to IP address xx.xxx.xxx.xxx is there a script I could run or an IIS setting I could change so that users are redirected to a different folder or index page based on which domain name they use? Also if this is done with a PHP script or something similar would search engines index both pages correctly? I know similar results can be achieved with Apache by using Virtual hosts in the httpd.conf file, but unfortunately I don’t know if this is possible with IIS. Thanks for the help

  Re: Running two websites with one IP address - Redirect by URL Reply Contact you may use Host Headers when you are using the same IP and same port... in that way you will be able to use both the websites....
