I have a few domains and some space available on a we server that I have had for ages but never really used. Its mainly meant for website hosting and it works pretty well for WordPress and similar services.

Could I host any self posted programs on such a server and what should I search for when researching options?

I can set up a database and upload files to the ftp server but i dont believe that i have a C panel or can run ssh.

I just bought some shared web server space that allows me to upload files through ftp and create databases. Also i can choose PHP version. I believe that's about it. No ssh option
