I just inherited hundreds of pages to support.

I have also added some pages.

When my pages have passed testing, I clean and build my solution.

When I push to the production server, I just push the latest .dll and the page/pages I created and/or added...not the other hundreds of pages that haven't changed.

I am the only person making changes.

What is the best practice? Move everything again whether the other other pages have changed or not or just move the latest dll and just the updated or /and new pages?

I am using vs 2008 and vs 2013.

What I have tried:

This is a question about best practices. Have used google search.

I would highly recommend using some sort of source control system, such as Microsoft Team Services, Subversion, or GIT. These do the hard work for you, making sure everything, old and new, stay in sync. Also, they make it easy to return to an earlier version if, as is wont to happen, one particular set of changes stuffed everything up. Finally, they make it easy to keep your versions off-line, which is a very good thing.

Cheers,

Mick
