And it can be more than just a backup system \u2013 build your own file server and access those important files from anywhere.<\/p>\n<p>Or use your VPS as a backup server for your website. Keep regular backups and restore your website from a point in time quickly and easily.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.heartinternet.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/vpsfun-files.jpg\" alt=\"Steel file cabinet\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11083\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Learning platform<\/h3>\n<p>Do you want to learn how to run a web server?

A VPS lets you set up your own personal playground, giving you the space you need to try new things without worrying about damaging any live systems you may be running.<\/p>\n<p>With a VPS, you can also collaborate on projects with people across the world. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linux.com\/learn\/tutorials\/824358-how-to-run-your-own-git-server\">Set up your own Git server<\/a>, and privately share code to work together on the next big thing.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.heartinternet.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/vpsfun-learning.jpg\" alt=\"Screen that says Code on it\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11086\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>VPN for wireless connections<\/h3>\n<p>Do you regularly use public Wifi? Whether travelling or visiting your local coffee shop, you can use a VPS as a VPN (virtual private network) for safe and secure browsing while on a public Wifi network. Check your bank statements, your email, or work on projects knowing that your important details are secure no matter how open the network is.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/openvpn.net\/index.php\/access-server\/docs\/quick-start-guide.html\">Install OpenVPN<\/a> or another VPN server onto your VPS, and with a bit of tinkering, you can have a quick way to make sure that, no matter where you are, your data\u2019s secure.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.heartinternet.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/vpsfun-vpn.jpg\" alt=\"Man sitting in a cafe with a laptop\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11089\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Internet of Things<\/h3>\n<p>Set up sensors around your house and have your VPS be your single hub for your Internet of Things.
