It's actually pretty simple. You can just follow the instructions
here:
http://www.startvbdotnet.com/aspsite/extras/deploy2.aspx

If you have any extra IP addresses, use one as the IP address for the
new website. If you do not have any extra IP addresses, you will have
to use host headers.

To use host headers, follow the instructions on that page and where it
says "host headers", enter "efg.com". And use the same IP address
setting as your xyz.com site. Using host headers limits your ability
to use SSL on the new domain, but if you don't need it, host headers
will work fine.

For your DNS servers, you will have to point the DNS record for the
efg.com domain to the IP address you used.

Does that all make sense?

Re: create a second web on the existing web server

Thank you so much for your help and it all makes sense.

We decide to use host header name and use the same IP as xyz.com.

then we only need to call ISP provider which hosts efg.com to create A
record or www record for efg.com? right?

Thank you for your great help.
