Sorry if this has been asked before...

I have looked around for the cheapest ftp recording sites out there for sending images of your camera to there website and storing it. The only one I have found so far that seems to work pretty good is cameraftp.com.

is there anymore out there possibly cheaper?

Admittedly a bit of a negative comment - not so much cheaper, but better is required. VGA resolution will do very little for you. I'm amazed they have any customers.
I use Google Drive and One Drive, 15GB free. And Flickr! - 1TB free.
FTP destination isn't something I've done, or plan to do, but it looks like there are large numbers of choices out there:

No, you'd either need specific support in the camera firmware, or an intermediate device to accept from the camera and upload to the cloud.
I wonder if there are any 3rd party Flickr! add-ons to do that. I have never looked. Flickr! does attract quite a bit of coder attention.

*edit*
Hmm... interesting. Not the only one. https://github.com/drumminhands/drumminhands_piFlickr

You can setup an FTP server on your computer and have your camera FTP the images to it. You can then setup Google Photos desktop uploader to point to the folder where your images are sent. This will allow your images to get uploaded into your Google photos account, which if you set to "high quality" will allow you unlimited free storage.
 
could just get a VPS, setup a VPN to your network and FTP server, encrypt your data before its written to disk, easy as pie.. here is 12TB for $90/mo with a bit of searching for storage VPS's https://www.ovh.com/us/dedicated-servers/storage/

you can find 500-1000GB VPS's for $10-20/mo all day long
