Not a bad question at all. Tamping is compacting the soil as you add
it too the hole. It will save you settling problems later. You can
rent a tamping tool fairly cheap, or devise your own method of packing
the soil as you add it..add some tamp some.

DO I need to add anything, particularly at the bottom of the hole,
before I add soil?

Nope, just dirt. Tamp it as you add.
