First of all take a look on manuals or books. There are a lot of them in internet. Here is a good example in my opinion

http://books.google.com.ua/books?id=f-hv_THIV7EC&pg=PA242&dq=linux+kernel+compilation&hl=ru&ei=RZgATbfwIYzIswa0nuXyDg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=3&ved=0CDAQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=linux%20kernel%20compilation&f=false

Also, after extracting kernel sources from archive, you can find in the folder the README file. There are brief overview of main steps.

A very comprehensive documentation on how to build a Linux system from sources is Linux from scratch. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/

This explains all the raw stuff that is needed. To bring the system to some use you will have to add a graphical user interface or some server programs like a web server or a mail server. All those additional steps are covered in the sister projects of Linux from scratch.

The main page lists them all.
