Here's my situation: i have one account and i'm not interested in adding more than one account. I have pretty extensive experience with bash cli. WHM is installed and preconfigured by the host.

I want to use that one account to host many different domains. Thus i'd like to set a different document root for each domain because each website is different.

Is it a prerequisite to create different accounts for each domain? Or can i have one whm account for several different domains. Also, where is the apache conf file that sets each virtualhost?

e.g:

username domain pwd
userfoo -> domain1.com -> /~userfoo/foobar
-> domain2.com -> /~userfoo/foobar2

etc.

AddonDomain.pngIf your agreement with the NOC permitts ( $ ) .
Under the graphical cPanel (Stats show add-on domains nn / nnn), there is a category: Domains which contains the ability to "add on domains".
The presented form includes the domain, for example: MyXXX-Client.com .
It suggests an FPT username( MyXXX-Client) and suggests a directory it will create ( public_html/MyXXX-Client ) and
requests a password for MyXXX-Client FTP usage.

Directories created by this are all owned by your creating ID/Group ( example: globerunnerseo )

Does this clairfy?
