additional info: i tried to deploy my site from visual studio 2010 to www.HostingAccountDomain.com but it shows me a error msg said 'www.HostingAccountDomain.com doesnt exist' thanks
Hi a) FRom your Local PC use an FTP program or Windows Explorer to copy the Files to the host directory. Path and log on details in the managment section on Winhost. b) Log into Winhost. Create a new database in the Management section of the control pannel. c) From your Local machine Log in to the Host SQL server 2008 via SSMS and script the database.
You should probably upload your site via FTP, since it's the simplest way of going about it. You should take a look at the following KB articles for step by step instructions on how to deploy your site via FTP using VS 2010. As for your database this KB article will give you instructions on how to transfer your local database to our database environment.
