 * Good day. I currently have WP installed locally to speed up the design process.
   My question is this:
 * Once I upload the new WP site to GoDaddy and continue making changes from the
   localhost side, how does that effect the database.
 * For example, my blog. I start blogging once the site is live and then decide 
   to upload changed to the web design from my localhost installation. Does the 
   updated install remove existing blogs on the live website?

 * If you upload your local database to your production site you’ll override everything
   there.
    If the changes you make is in the code, than it should be ok to upload
   to production.
