You can use SQL Server Publisher (free) wizard for moving database from development machine to the server. Or you can use SQL Server database schema synchronization tool by Red-gate.com
And SitePubisher for deploying files over FTP (and VPN)

Depends on a number of things (e.g. if you have direct access to the server(s)). I tend to export my database structure as a SQL script and execute that against the production database. I then "publish" the site using VS and copy it across to a virtual directory on the web server.
If I am passing the application to a customer, I tend to use WiX or a VS deployment project to wrap the application up in an installer.
