Seeding a file means that you uploading it to other users, hundreds of people can seed a file at once, so that mean the download will be faster. The less seeders the slower the download. If there are no seeders the download will be very slow, or not download at all. So basically, The more seeders the better. How to seed: Once you have downloaded the torrent leave it, It will seed automatically, It's as easy as that, it will slightly slow you internet down, but will help other people downloading the torrent, To stop it, simply click stop on the torrent. Hope this helped.

seeders is a numbers of pirate bay users who have a file to share to everyone.
