I was uploading the proper .zip file. For it worked afterwards when GoDaddy support helped me. And I did nothing different.

I contacted GoDaddy support and they helped me to fix it – he said it was something to do with the .php and that the theme developer support should have been helping me with this and given me the proper settings?
He adjusted my hosting settings now since he said he had a WordPress site and remembered the settings he had to use.
As I am very new to all of this – that would have been good to know in advance and saved some frustration.
So – as it stands right now it appears to be working. I will let you know if I encounter further issues.
Thanks
