Hi Pat,
In order to post the recordings as a podcast you will need to follow a few steps.
1. Change the recordings into MP3's
You do this by going into iTunes=>Preferences=>Advanced=>Importing and change the "Import Using" Setting to MP3. Click OK. Then go back the where the recordings are in iTunes click on a recording and then under the Advanced menu choose Convert the Selection to MP3. You can choose a group of recordings and have them converted all at once.
2. The second step is to find the newly converted MP3's and add them to a podcast. Do this by clicking on the recordings in your iTunes window and choosing "Show in Finder" from the File menu. You will be taken to where the files are located.
3. Adding the MP3 recordings to a Podcast is something you can do using AbbyNet. Tom has created a screencast showing you how to create a podcast and add your recordings to it. Here is the address to the movie (you will need to copy and paste the URL into your browser's address bar: http://start-learning.ca/images/stories/videos/abbynet_websites/FirstClassWeb5pub.mov

If you just want the recordings to play on a webpage, you simply drag the MP3's directly into your AbbyNet webpage (give a chance to upload before closing teh webpage window). Hope this helps
