Can I use more than one Public IP for a VM

Question

Can anyone confirm if Azure VM allows more than one Public IP? 

I want to host multiple websites on single VM and hence want to have different IP for each website. 

I know we can host more VM, but that will greatly increase our expense too. So, I just want more than 1 Public IP on VM.

Any help?

It appears you can now have multiple public IPs for a load balanced cloud service:

Now you can assign more than one load-balanced public IP address to a set of virtual machines, enabling high-availability and high-scale scenarios. You can host multiple secure websites in a cloud service or allow multiple SQL Server AlwaysOn Availability Group listeners to access the same set of virtual machines.

For more information, please vistit the Load Balancer page. There is no additional charge for this feature.
