Seeding own torrent in Transmission (OSX)

Hi guys,

I'm just very confused. I've just created new torrent via my transmission app on MacOs 12 and wanted to upload it in few different sites for sharing. When I first added the torrent it was ok, it verified the torrent files and was ready to seed. When I uploaded the torrent in one of the sites I wanted, it asked me to download the torrent in order to seed it, so I remove my first one and added the one torrent i created with this site..

I'm confused why you need to download your own torrent in order to seed it and can I have one torrent and seed in different pages, or for each one I need to create separate ones, so they won't interfere to one another. I tried to find some info about it, but not very successful. At the moment I don't know what this torrent I'm waiting to download (my own one) is going to do at all.. is it going to seed or not..

I am confused by this too. If my file is on the cloud how can I seed it without downloading on my laptop?
