To those that are new to web hosting, and what should you do to upload or send your file to Bluehost Server. This will be your guide. 
Always use FTP, the only way to upload the files to server. The FTP manager is available at bluehost cpanel, no extra software require
Login to your Bluehost cpanel, and go to “Site Management”, and select “FTP Manager”. You can use any of the following:
- Java Applet FTP ClientÂ
Browse, manipulate, and transfer files between your local hard drive on your computer and the server. - BlueHost.Com Drag & Drop FTP
Pops up a new internet explorer window that will allow you to easily upload or download files between this computer and your web site. You may also rename, delete, or edit files on the server so use with caution! To upload, drag the file or folder into this window.
When you publishing your website online, always remember to ftp upload your file to folder “public_html/”. Not to other folder.
To lazy person like me that don’t like to remembering ftp login username and password, i will always use ftp client manager like cuteftp 
… and it support multithreaded ftp uploading.
Go to Bluehost.com Hosting

Hi,
“To those that are new to web hosting, and what should you do to upload or send your file to Bluehost Server. This will be your guide. Always use FTP, the only way to upload the files to server”
What file are you talking about and how do you save it? I am confused about how to save my entire blog and then upload it. I feel like I need step by step instruction on how to save my entire blog. The Bluehost FAQ seems to skip this part.
Thanks,
Suk

if you have a blog site like this one, what you need to do is login to phpmyadmin, and EXPORT the whole database to text file. Remember to select the option INSERT complete. You can find a guide online for this.
now, in the new hosting server, upload your blog files, and create a new MySQL database. setup your blog site first. Once done, go to phpmyadmin, and use the IMPORT feature, paste in the text you backup just now.
Done, the new database is import to new hosting.
