Step 1: Edit hosts file to add fake names

  • Open file “C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts” by your favourite text processor. Remember that only Administrator have the right to edit this file. You can choose “Run as Administrator” when running text processor if you log in to the other users rather than Administrator.
  • Go to the last line of “hosts” file and insert this line:
    127.0.0.1 yourdomain.com
    hosts
  • Test the hosts file by going to cmd and ping yourdomain.com. If the reply is from loopback address, you have done this step.
    ping

Step 2: IIS 7 Configuration

  • Create new Web Site with these following parameters:
    newwebstite

Step 3: Configure your domain’s DNS

  • Point @ address to your server’s IP.

Step 4: Congratulations, enjoy your website ;)
