Are you saying you want to transfer your local drupal installation to your web site? All you need to do upload your files for drupal using FTP to your website.
The next step is tansfering your drupal database. What you'll need to do is login to phpmyadmin and click the export tab. Select your drupal database. Now scroll down to the bottom and check the checkbox labelled save as file. Click the Go button after. Save this file to your dektop.
Your host should provide a facility for managing your MySQL databases. You need to go there to setup your drupal database by uploading the backup which is saved to your desktop. You should ask you host how to setup an existing database if you are unsure about this.
When you database is setup you should be good to go. However you may need to alter Drupals configuration to work on your web site.
