I am new to FarCry and need to move a site from on host to another.
Can anyone out there give me some info on what is involved with this
operation. Thanks in advance.

I need to know also how it can be deploy a stand alone project to a
share hosting. Sorry but your documentation is not that user friendly.

John and Luis,

If you're using FarCry 5, you can export the project and the entire
database using the new skeleton tool (which exports all of the data
for you). Then on the destination server, copy the project (and the
skeleton data) into the skeletons folder. Install the site and when
you get to the skeleton selection screen, choose the skeleton you
created. It will import all of the data from your old server into
your new database.

Please keep in mind that there is one minor bug/error in this process:
the skeleton tool doesn't currently export/import the Friendly URL
table data (for more details: http://bugs.farcrycms.org/browse/FC-1371).

Regards,
