Multiple FTP sutes requires multiple IP addresses or multiple ports.
Ports are not ideal in your situation, since they must be appended to
the IP address.

Here's what is common:

Configure a user account for each web domain.

Configure a home directory for each user account with the same name as
the user account.

In DNS, point ftp.{Domain_Name} to the same IP your FTP server is on.

When the user logs in, they are dropped into the home directory
matched to their login name. A virtual folder pointing to the web
site root lets them FTP files there.
