Hi,

One addition:
graceful is better. It leaves anything apache can think of operational.

sudo /etc/init.d/[apache|httpd] graceful

It sends a SIG (USR1 if memory serves me well) to apache, meaning in this
case to reload configuration.
On a development machine is makes no difference of course, but when you are
playing with your productionserver, graceful safes you a few phonecalls.
