    I know you have been confused on what I mean in my title.
    I have problem with this page. Anyone can open the page
    http://www.internetworkclub.com/home without logging in or
    subscribing on my site.. Just by typing the page on the address bar,
    it can still be seen. Could you please help me with this
    problem? What should I do to make this page not visible to
    everyone? My visitor should pass my index page (login/introduction page) first before seeing that page.

    P.S. I am using WordPress.

    The easiest solution is to password protect the directory with .htaccess. You'll probably want to use a cookie to track if the user has signed in from the main page. If they haven't, redirect them to the home page.

    Google "edit .htaccess" or "password protected .htaccess" and you'll find lots of answers. :)
