> I had no difficulty uploading the site I built to my WordPress hosted test site using GoDaddy’s file manager.

That’s a little confusing as it sounds like you are uploading the site *through* WordPress, which obviously isn’t the case.

If the site you’ve built has *nothing* to do with WordPress then you’ll create a new folder in their FTP root called `bak` or something similar, move *all* files into that folder (make sure the `.htaccess` file moves in there, too, it might be hidden in your program). Then upload all of your new files into the root.

If the client is giving you a WordPress login, they don’t know what FTP is. You’ll need to get FTP access. You cannot upload the new site through WordPress.
