You don't need to trust the keyservers since you verify the fingerprints of downloaded keys against the fingerprints given to you in person.
The keyserver protocol includes commands to include keys in the keyserver network. How you send keys depends on the UI of the tool you use, geeks will do this:
gpg --keyserver <keyserver> --send-keys <fingerprint>
