That is the way Publisher creates websites. I believe only Publisher 2000
websites can be altered to display in the center.

Try this. I stumbled upon it by clicking around Publisher 2003 (as a precaution, before trying this, rename your web layout file so your current version remains intact):

1- Click File, then Page Setup.

2- Under Layout, select Custom.

3- In the Width box, enter a horizontal measurement that is wider than your current setting. (This is trial and error; I changed my width from 8 inches to 10 inches.)

4- Now group the design elements in your web page and move them to the right (see next steps), so that the right edge of the layout touches the right edge of the enlarged white work area (in my case, it’s the 10-inch mark).

5- To group, hold down the Shift key, click the elements, then click Arrange, then Group. (Do just a few elements to test the centeredness in Steps 6-8, then do the rest of the layout/pages.)

6- To move a group, hover your cursor over the boundary of a group until you see the omnidirectional arrow symbol. Click and drag the group until the right boundary touches the right edge.

7- Now ungroup the elements so the layout can be seen on the web. To ungroup, click anywhere in the group, then click Arrange and select Ungroup.

8- Check the result by clicking File, then Web Page Preview. Adjust the page width if needed, move the elements again, then try viewing again.

This is kind of tedious, but it works. Here's my now-centered website: www.cumberlandumcflorence.org.

Hope this helps.
