A quick google for "apt repository howto", besides pulling up a
surprising number of links about RPMs, also brings up these two:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/repository-howto/repository-howto.html
http://www.ibiblio.org/gferg/ldp/giles/repository/repository.html
One of these should be enough to get you started.
A poor man's version would be: "man dpkg-scanpackages"
Also, look at the layout of the small repositories at apt-get.org
