Hi there @vupeshmohanty,

Yes indeed this is doable. What you could do is to set up virtual hosts if you are using Apache or if you are using Nginx you can set up server blocks. That way you can have multiple websites hosted on the same Droplet.

Depending on what webserver you are using you can follow the steps here:

  • For Nginx, you can follow this guide here:

  • And for Apache you can follow this tutorial here:

Let me know if you have any questions! Regards, Bobby
