Thanks for helping me understand (hopefully). So, my understanding is 
this:»»»»Geoserver serves the map data.»»»»OpenLayers fetch the geoserver's map 
and display it through a web browser. And to achieve this fetching, I should 
create a html file where I call the Geoserver´s map, and upload the html file 
in a ftp (for other people to see it in the web).»»»»And in order for the 
OpenLayers to fetch this map, Geoserver needs to be running in a server (i.e. 
Virtual Private Server) under a servlet container (i.e. Tomcat Apache).»»»»So 
the final product is a html file stored in a web hosting server and accessed by 
people in internet web browsers.
