You find some torrents that need to be revived, post them in that thread, and if they qualify, they will be made Freeleech. This lets you be an early person on the Freeleech, giving you the most benefit.

As of rule of thumb: look for torrents with high leech count and low seed count, to increase your odds.

you don't need to download all files if the torrent is too big it's ok to pick only a handful. download as many freeleech torrents as you can, as they will not decrease your ratio. if you don't see substantial traffic for too long, you can delete the torrent files and move on to a different torrent.

if you can't seed anything at all through this method, you can still upload your own torrents, just make sure they are not duplicates, or they will get removed.

if you have money to invest, consider buying a seedbox subscription, as it will give you a huge advantage towards regular home users, with a seedbox you can double your current uploaded traffic in less than two days.
