Move my test site to my live site

Hello,
I am working on a new site while the old one is still live and would like to know if there is a guide for dummies to move the new site to replace the current one once it is finished. The site is site.com and I have made the new site site.com/newsite
Can I do that myself or do I need to ask someone who knows what he is doing?
Thanks ...

Hello,

Thanks for contacting us about your moving your test site to your live site. Generally, you will just need to move the files from the /newsite folder to the document root for your main site. However, if you used a content management system like WordPress, Joomla, or Drupal you may need to change your URLs in the database. If you can tell us how you built your site we can give you some documentation specific to your site.

Best Regards,
Kyle M
