Specification for HTTP1.1 allows for multiple domains to share a single IP
address. the browser sends the complete URL in its request. The server
looks at the requested domain and responds accordingly. Many hosting
companies will allow you to take advantage of this directing a
"parked" domain name to point to a directory within your site.
As a side note, until Microslop went to version 5 of its web server this
was not supported. You had to multihome a machine to allow two web sites
on the same box. They finally got it so you didn't shortly before winblows
2k. That was considered a show stoping feature of the version. They had
grown tired of being beaten up about this area of appache's superiority.
