I'm hoping his is going to be easy but I really have no clue. I do understand some links and things will need updating.

We have a site developed in http://domain.com/drupal

We're ready to take the site live and just curious on the process of moving into the proper section.

Thanks in advance.

set site in offline mode

move files
check settings.php for a $base_url if set, insure to change to new location

backup your DB
manually clear all cache tables in the DB
manually clear all sessions tables in the DB
I also tend to clear the watchdog table

navigate back to site, using yoursite.com/user
login
navigate to the admin area
set site back in online mode.

I think the only problem you may encounter is broken links to files or images in the content. If that happens, give more specific infomation about the paths in those links.
