Note the address of the FTP server. This address can either be a host name or an IP address. A host name will be similar to one you use to access a website. An IP address will be similar to 192.168.1.1, although your numbers will vary.
Determine whether a user name is required to login to the FTP server. FTP sessions may either require a name or they may be anonymous. If no name or password has been provided, assume it is anonymous FTP.
Make a note of the password required for your FTP access to the remote server. If it is anonymous FTP, you will not need a password.
Connect with an FTP Client
Attempt an FTP connection using your web browser. Most browsers support FTP connections. Type 'ftp://192.168.1.1/path/filename' in the address bar of your web browser. Substitute the actual host, domain, path and file name that you have been provided.
Connect with a command line FTP client. Both Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X support FTP from the command prompt. Open a command prompt in Windows, or use the Terminal application in OS X. In both, type 'ftp' from the command prompt to access the FTP client.
Download a free graphical FTP client. If you plan to use FTP regularly, a graphical client can simplify the process. Some of the most popular FTP clients include WinSCP for Windows, Cyberduck for Mac OS X, or CrossFTP for either operating system.

How to Upload a Website to GoDaddyIn Feburary 2016 04,
In Feburary 2016 04,
Open your FTP client and type in your GoDaddy hosting account username and password. If you want to avoid using a third-party FTP client, you can use the built-in GoDaddy FTP client; however, this is not recommended for large files. To access the GoDaddy FTP client, go to 'Hosting' under 'My Products.' Click 'Manage Account' by your hosting account. Under 'Content', click 'FTP Client.'
Navigate to the folder on your server where your new website files will be stored. In most circumstances, use the initial directory.
Go to the folder on your hard drive that contains your website’s HTML files.
Once you have successfully logged in to your server through the FTP client, drag and drop the files from your hard drive to the server. Make sure you have an index.html file; this is the initial page of your website that will be seen when someone types in your domain name. For example, www.yoursite.com/index.html is equivalent to www.yoursite.com.
Visit your domain name to see if the files uploaded correctly. Under most circumstances, your site should be live instantaneously. Refresh your browser if you do not see any changes.
Troubleshoot any problems that arise. Click on every link, particularly internal links, to see if they are working properly. If they are not working, go back to the raw HTML file and correct them as needed. All link and image paths should be relative to the domain and not paths on your computer. For instance, a header image might read file:///C|/my documents/photos/header1.jpg in the source code when it should read /images/header1.jpg or http://www.yoursite.com/images/header1.jpg.
Promote your new website!

How to Export a Site from GoDaddyIn Feburary 2016 01,
In Feburary 2016 01,
Log in to your GoDaddy account. Under the 'My Account' menu, select 'My Products.' Scroll down until you locate the 'Web Hosting' link. Click on it. A list of domains you have hosted with GoDaddy appears. Click the 'Launch' button to open the hosting control center. Once inside your hosting control center, select 'Content' from the horizontal navigation bar. A drop-down menu appears. One of the options on the menu is 'Java FTP Client.' Click on this. A Java application opens. The application has two windows; the window on the right shows the files you have uploaded to GoDaddy's servers that are part of your website. The window on the left displays files as they are organized on your machine's local hard drive.
Make a new local directory. To do so, click on the 'New Folder' icon situated under the window that displays the files on your local drive. A box opens prompting you to enter a name for the new directory. After entering a name, click 'OK.' The new folder appears as a directory on your local drive listings. Double-click on it to open it.
Return to the window on the right. Select and highlight all folders and files by clicking on each row with the control (Ctrl) button on your keyboard pressed. When all folders are selected and highlighted in blue, click on the left-pointing arrow between the two windows. This arrow only becomes 'live' after files are selected. Once you click on the arrow, the files that comprise your website begin downloading to your website. A progress report can be seen in the box below the two windows displaying the files. When the download is complete, you will have successfully exported your site from GoDaddy.
