any reason you can't use something like MSDeploy? it will configure IIS, app pools, locations, vdirs, etc... MSDeploy walkthrough - msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd465322.aspx.

Have a look at some articles and posts :

There are managed APIs to deal with IIS, see John's asnwer here: IIS API - Create virtual directories? for an example and also here: Creating a new website programmatically on IIS using ASP.NET and C# the body of the method: CreateWebsite.
both are examples and should be adapted but a good starting point to show you how to interact with IIS from .NET / C#
