Move WordPress site to non WordPress site

    I am working on overhauling the look of a website. I have created a new WP on another domain that I was planning to copy to the old website, but the current website is not WP. How difficult is it to copy that WP site and put it on the non-WP site? Also, the current site has an extension that is WP built (ie: http://www.example.com/site). Would it be easier to put the new design on that extension and somehow redirect it to be seen as the main site (ie http://www.example.com)? Thanks for any help – I’m not a coder, WP is the only platform I’m familiar with.

    Not at all.

    Would it be easier to put the new design on that [‘/site/’] extension and somehow redirect [the domain] to be seen as the main site (ie ‘http://www.example.com’)?

    Yes, that is possible, but there is more than one way to do that and it sounds like the domain is already landing at that ‘/site/’ location. So, is the browser URL to the current site ‘http://www.example.com/site’ or does ‘http://www.example.com’ actually get there? Knowing that will make a huge difference in sorting your redirect options.
