Lets assume you called your module 'my_module' (replace my_module with your actual module name).

You created a directory under sites/all/modules called 'my_module'.

In that directory

You created a file called my_module.info (step 2 in your reference)

You created a file called my_module.module

The function names in my_module.module start with my_module.

The minimum you need for a module to appear in the modules list is:

1) A folder with the module name (ex: my_module)
2) An .info file with the module name (ex: my_module.info). The folder name (#1) and .info file name (#2) have to be exactly the same.
3) Inside the module you need the following code:

name = My Module (this doesn't have to be the same)
description = My description
core = 6.x

If you do these three things, and the folder name and .info file name are EXACTLY the same, your module will appear in the modules menu.
