This might be a dump question but i wanted to clear.

I have a VPS and i am the only administrator . Is it safe to add all the domains to the admin that is the main account or create separate accounts for each and every domains ???
 
It probably would be safer to put them on a non admin account. You could just make a reseller and put the users under that.

Hello,

I don't know what PHP scripts you are going to use there, and how secure they are. But if you host all domains under one admin account in a case if one of your site will be hacked via a whole in a PHP script then the other sites of yours might be hacked also, as the hacker might have access to them via browsing the home directory. And if you host every site under a separate account, the other sites might stay secured even if one of the account will be compromised or password to FTP be stolen.

So I would recommend putting every single domain under a separate user account.
