Minecraft Permission awarded in Essentials?

I have the problem that I want to give my players more homes on the server, but I do not know how. There it is

sethome Multiple:

# essentials.sethome.multiple

default: 3

# essentials.sethome.multiple.vip

vip: 5

# essentials.sethome.multiple.staff

staff: 10

However, how do I divide the players in staff or vip, … One?

Do you need a permission plugin for such as PermissionsEx

There you create, for example, Rank the player and give players the rights: essentials.sethome.multiple

Now all players can set 3 Homes by default.
