ROMs are zip files.
Your phone must be rooted and running a custom recovery.
Transfer the zip file to your device storage or SD card.
Boot into recovery. (this is for Clockworkmod recovery).

Next choose install zip from sdcard then select choose zip from sdcard
Navigate to where you put the zip file and select it.
