I use frontpage do I just create a page that I want then add the folder to with the full web page up to the wordpress template folder? About plugins I am not very familiar with them is this were RSS and other feeds are I would like to add some automatic feeders like RSS and others that will post everyday on auto pilot if possible. If anyone has a good tutorial that I can go to on customizing wordpress other than the wordpress site I would appriciate thanks.

I'm sure I'm not treading on anyone's toes here with a list of very general links. (You can never have too much info can you?)
RSS Stuff
Some good links here if you pick carefully
Slightly more technical but good to know at the start
Mainstream ideas but some good ones
Similar but different author
I've kept this to a very general list - kind of "Things I wish I'd known before". If I can help with anything specific, just shout.
It's great to play with site design at first but I 'd do the minimum you can live with and start getting in some content. You can always tweak at leisure later. The most essential by my reckoning for SE purposes is to get your title tags and permalinks set up properly. Then start looking for hard link exchanges. You wont have a Google PR for a few months so it's difficult to get incoming links with high PR sites at first but don't be tempted to just link to anywhere, it's worth being patient and persistent.
