Routing of Self-Hosted WCF Service - wcf

Question

I have a self hosted WCF service that listens on port 80 (the third-party device does not support sending on other ports). I also have two web sites and three Web API base services that are also on port 80 and have been working well. All of these services/sites run using different FQDNs (test-svc1.example.com, test-svc2.example.com, test-site1.example.com, etc..). It is important to note that all the subdomains point to the same IP Address on the server. All of this has been working great until I try and install my service that hosts my WCF service. Once I install that service when I attempt to navigate to either of my two sites I get a page with the following information on it:
.....
You have created a service.
To test this service, you will need to create a client and use it to call the service. You can do this using the svcutil.exe tool from the command line with the following syntax:
.....
If I stop my WCF based service then my site works fine.
The following is the code that is used to host the WCF service.
public class MyService
{
private const string MyServiceName = "MyService";
private ServiceHost _selfHost;
public void Start()
{
this._selfHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(MyWebService), new Uri(wcf.exampe.com));
try
{
BasicHttpBinding binding = new BasicHttpBinding();
int tempValue = 0;
this._selfHost.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IMyServiceContract), binding, MyServiceName);
ServiceMetadataBehavior smb = new ServiceMetadataBehavior();
smb.HttpGetEnabled = true;
this._selfHost.Description.Behaviors.Add(smb);
this._selfHost.Open();
}
catch ( CommunicationException ce )
{
this._selfHost.Abort();
}
}
public void Stop()
{
// Close the ServiceHostBase to shutdown the service.
this._selfHost.Close();
}
}
This code is called by a windows service wrapper. What I need is for this service to be able to run on port 80, but only listen for packets associated with wcf.example.com.

As mentioned before, all of this works fine on my test box when running under Visual Studio, but does not work when run on my production box as a service.
