Benefits of creating virtual host is you can easily make make urls clean and many more.
1. First you need to add the following code in C:/xampp/apache/config/extra/httpd-vhosts.config file:
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.2:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/therichpost"
ServerName therichpost.localhost
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
2. After it your need to add the below code in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file:
127.0.0.2 therichpost.localhost #change to match your Virtual Host.
3. After this restrat your xampp server and you can open your website with "therichpost.localhost" link.
