How to move my local WordPress site (on my PC – webmatrix) to live?

There are two options

  1. (Best) Create a wordpress account in godaddy, import all your sites data and database to the new site. This is relatively easy to do and you can get Godaddy to walk you through it.

  1. (Worst) On you home router, NAT ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS) if you would like email you cannot get that working as all ISP’s block outbound 25 traffic.

Setup a DDNS account as your home IP address is probably dynamic.

Add an A record for you site point to your DDNS IP
