This is a great tutorial: http://themetation.com/2008/07/14/how-to-create-wordpress-themes-from-scratch-part-1/
Is basically the same as doing the site, you will create the page as it is a html page first and then convert to wordpress by adding the PHP commands.

As you may know a domain name is just a name, not a real website/weblog. If you are going to create your blog website: 1- Buy a domain name. A domain name is a name you want to call your website (ex: http://www.yahoo.com). To get a domain name, you have to pay an annual fee to a registrar for the right to use that name. 2- Buy a web hosting service to provide your online space and enable you to get your blog online at your purchased domain name.
If you’re going to start your blog at your own domain with different pages, you need a web host providing wordpress.
Take a look at:

There you can reach the three reputable companies that are leaders in the blog/wordpress website hosting industry.
