Assuming you have the hosting account you need the following.

1. Set up DNS for your website

2. Heroku, create the the database and users names for it with password and put that in your application. (I think they ask you to use MySQL provider - see link

3. Transfer your files to your Heroku site/account by using SFTP or git If all of those are done correctly, then you should be able to reach your site publicly.
