Virtual Host is your directive to creating "independent" domains using the 
same server. So there is no getting around it if you want to host more than 
one domain.

More info than you care to know is here:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/vhosts/name-based.html

Regarding multiple domain names for each virtual host:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#serveralias

you just string them together space delimited:


ServerAlias clearspanmedia.com www.clearspanmedia.com
