First, create an account. This is free.

Then you can start to grow your family tree one person at a time, or by importing a GEDCOM if you have created a family tree elsewhere.

As you create your family tree you can invite family members to contribute by adding their e-mail addresses to their profiles.

As you build your ancestry you may find that distant cousins have already added some of your ancestors.
