To find most of the information, log onto godaddy, click the tab “Hosting”, followed by the menu-item “My Hosting Account.”
On this new page, find the account you want to be able to connect to, and click “Open Hosting Manager” (or something like that…)
In there, there will be several different places to find all of your information.
To connect w/ Dreamweaver, your site name is just how you want it to show up when you connect w/ Dreamweaver. HTTP address is how users navigate to your site, like http://www.google.com/.
If you are using PHP or ASP or anything, select that under the Server Technology page.
Choose where on your computer you want to store the files from your website.

On the next page, choose FTP in the box on how to connect to the remote server.
Hostname is the FTP address. For you with GoDaddy, this will be: http://ftp.jetsetngo.com.
FTP login will be the name of your hosting account (it will be all lowercase, and it is the name that you chose when you set up the hosting account. It is probably something similar to jetsetngo).
FTP password is the password you set up for that account.

Those are all the basics that you will need, however I recommend going under Advanced and selecting “Automatically Upload Files on Save” from the “Remote Info” tab–this means that when you click save, the file is automatically (and quickly) uploaded to the web. Very convenient.
I use this to do all my websites, and I do quite a few!

Don’t worry about other fields.
