    No idea what technology you’re using to connect to the database, but a connection string would be something like:

    Provider = SQLNCLI; -- maybe not necessary, e.g. in C#
  Data Source = hostname;
  Initial Catalog = your database name;
  User ID = username;
  Password = password;

    Obviously we can’t tell you the hostname, database name, username or password…

    From Management Studio you would enter your credentials and enter the hostname/IP (and named instance, if relevant) in the Server name box, e.g.:

    enter image description here

    …or…

    enter image description here

    …or…

    enter image description here

    We can’t tell you what to enter, because that information is between you and GoDaddy. If you’re having a specific problem connecting, we can try to help you figure it out, or at least guide you in what to ask them.
