How to set up Apache Virtual Hosts on Ubuntu 14.04
In a few steps create a virtual host on your Apache server. If you did not know Virtual hosting is a method for hosting multiple domain names (with separate handling of each name) on a single server (or pool of servers). This allows one server to share its resources, such as memory and processor cycles, without requiring all services provided to use the same host name. Virtual hosts can be "IP-based", meaning that you have a different IP address for every web site, or "name-based", meaning that you have multiple names running on each IP address. The fact that they are running on the same physical server is not apparent to the end user.
Apache was one of the first servers to support IP-based virtual hosts right out of the box. Versions 1.1 and later of Apache support both IP-based and name-based virtual hosts (vhosts). The latter variant of virtual hosts is sometimes also called host-based or non-IP virtual hosts.
Commands:
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/testdomain.com/public_html
sudo adduser testdomainuser
sudo /usr/sbin/visudo
sudo chown -R $testdomainuser:$testdomainuser /var/www/testdomain.com/public_html
sudo nano /var/www/testdomain.com/public_html/index.html
sudo cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/testdomain.com
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/testdomain.com
sudo mv /etc/apache2/sites-available/testdomain.com /etc/apache2/sites-available/testdomain.com.conf
sudo a2ensite testdomain.com
sudo service apache2 reload
