resize /var/www (debian)

I have several live websites running in the /var/www/XXXX directory. Initially when I did the Debian install I limited the web directory to 6GB. I am now outgrowing that limit. Question is:

Is there a simple way to add space to the web directory???

I'd hate to have to redo the whole server, or install another drive. Any ideas?

PS. Please only comment if you have good working knowledge in this area, I don't want to try something and have to start from scratch.
