I already have a hosting server with an existing name-server.

I just purchased 3 domain names from a different vendor and supplied them with the correct name servers.

Do I have to create the necessary folders manually on my server or will they be created automatically? If I am to create them manually, where in cPanel do I do that?

Go into cpanel control panel, the Domains section and choose Add-on domain.

When you provide the name of the domain, it will automatically suggest a name of the folder (based on the domain) and its location. If you are happy with the choice, then tell it to go ahead and you are done.

The domain transfer isn't important. As long as the domain has the right nameservers, it doesn't matter who the registrar is. However, you can perform this process at any time. – Paul Nov 11 '11 at 11:57
