The Tracker keeps track of the seeders. seeders are the other clients whom you download from.

1. File > Create new Torrent (or CTRL + N)
2. Select the file(s) and/or directories
3. Trackers:  just put in one of the popular public trackers. You can use one or more trackers, but in general one is enough.
Here are some good trackers you can use:

    http://open.tracker.thepiratebay.org/announce
    http://www.torrent-downloads.to:2710/announce
    http://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
    udp://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
    http://www.sumotracker.com/announce

Put one of these in the tracker box

4. Do NOT tick the private torrent box (unless you’re using a private tracker)

You're done.
