Default Tilling a lawn

Hello all.
I have a question about tilling a lawn.
I am in the process of tilling my lawn, and want to make sure I am
doing it right.
I just tilled up a patch about 15 feet by 10, just to get used to the
machine.
I tilled it once, and raked out the patches of old grass. Tilled it
again, and once again, raked out the old stuff.
Then I leveled it out.
The whole reason I'm tilling isn't because of bad grass. Actually, the
grass is very good. However, the previous owners of the house had 2
dogs, that dug up the yard pretty good. Divits everywhere, and for
whatever reason, the lawn slops off about 6 inches in the middle.
I want to level it all out nice.
Now, after I'm done tilling and leveling, I plan on spreading seed, A
question I have is, do I need to somehow bury the seed a little? If
so, how do I go about doing that? I don't plan on using a roller,
basically, I can't get ahold of one.
Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks
