How do you have multiple Websites on the same server?

Placing multiple websites on a server is not the issue. But how does one
get external users to reach the correct site


E.g. www.site1.co.uk mapped onto one site on the machine
www.site2.co.uk mapped on to a different web on the same
machine.

As an alternative solution, having a single web site bound to an IP
address, you can use any sort of redirect script to redirect content for
a specific domain to a [virtual] subdirectory:

As a simple redirect script you can refer to the following example:
