back up a bit,
copy your folder to the server. you only need the bin subfolder and the aspx
files along with an optional web config file if you use it. nothing else.

open iis, to default websites and find your application in the subtree. It
should have a folder icon. right-click on it and choose properties. In the
virtual directory tab, click create. That's it. The folder icon should
change to a box like icon. you are done.
