Go to START -> All Programs ->
Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products and click on SharePoint 2010 Central
Administration, this will open the Central Administration site UI as shown
below. Click on Manage web applications under Application Management in
Central Administration page or under Web Applications in the Application
Management page.
On the web applications page, in the right pane you will notice all the web applications created so far. On top you will see an Office style ribbon which is a new feature of SharePoint 2010. Because we intend to create a new web application, simply click on the New option in left most side of the ribbon.
This will open up a Create New Web Application page, you need to specify different settings/parameters for your new web application to be created. Some of these settings/parameters are described below:
On the Create Site Collection page, first you need to specify the Title and Description for your new site collection.
Next you need to specify the URL for your site collection in the Web Site Address section.
Then you need to select one of the several available custom created templates which will be used as a blue-print to create your site collection.
Next you need to specify the Primary Site Collection Administrator, specifying the Secondary Site Collection Administrator is an optional setting, but recommended as it allows secondary administrator to take charge of administration if the primary administrator is not available.
Next if required, you can use the Quota template to restrict growth of your site collection to a certain limit.
Click on the OK button and you are done with the creation of the SharePoint web application. Click on the link and you will see your web application like this.
We normally create a site for each division/department/project. To create more sites, click on Site Action on the top left corner and you will see several options like this (this is another change from last SharePoint version where it used to be on top right side):
Click on New Site and specify different parameters (Title and URL) for your new site as shown below.
You can create as many sites as you want, for example I have created a couple of different sites for each department of the organization as you can see below.
