IIS multiple URL Rewrite rules

I have IIS installed on one server and need to have few url rewrite rules. All of the rules have to point to different servers/urls. For example:

http://my-iis-server       --> http://web-server-0/category
http://my-iis-server/site1 --> http://web-server-1/category1
http://my-iis-server/site2 --> http://web-server-2/category20
http://my-iis-server/site3 --> http://web-server-3/category33

The first rule was easy. The problems began when trying to implement the rest of the rules (/site1, /site2, /site3)

If i have the following pattern: Pattern: site1(.*) Rewrite URL: http://web-server-1/{R:1} and navigate to: http://my-iis-server/site1 the result is 404 and the url is changed to: http://my-iis-server/category1 which dont exists ofc.

Any idea how to keep the siteX in the main url?

Is this correct approach in general? Is it going to be cleaner/easier with virtual directories?

According to your description, I suggest you could try to use below url rewirte rule:

            <rule name="for site 1">
                <match url="site1(.*)" />
                <action type="Rewrite" url="http://web-server-1/category1{R:1}" />
            </rule>
            <rule name="for site 2">
              <match url="site2(.*)" />
              <action type="Rewrite" url="http://web-server-2/category20{R:1}" />
            </rule>
            <rule name="for site 3">
              <match url="site3(.*)" />
              <action type="Rewrite" url="http://web-server-3/category33{R:1}" />
            </rule>
            <rule name="for site 4">
              <match url="(.*)" />
              <action type="Rewrite" url="http://web-server-0/category" />
            </rule>
