It is very easy to take a site developed locally and move it to another server.

1. Copy the contents of the /joomla directory to the root of your new website, either by zipping them and unzipping or ftp'ing etc.

2. Backup and then restore your database - use phpmyadmin in RJS to generate a full export of your joomla database to a file. Use phpmyadmin on your hosting service to create a database and then import the file from RJS

3. Edit your configuration.php file to reflect the new values. Specifically the following:

$mosConfig_user = 'joomla_joomla';
$mosConfig_password = 'password';
$mosConfig_db = 'joomla_joomla';
$mosConfig_absolute_path = '/home/joomla/public_html';
$mosConfig_live_site = 'http://www.joomla.org';
$mosConfig_cachepath = '/your absolute path/cache';

Note: You may also need to ensure you have configured your .htaccess file in the new location.
