For article submission I use ezines or goarticles. For social bookmarking, try digg mixx propeller and solinkable (social news sites that want you to contribute tot eh community before submitting your own stuff) or oyax or stumbleupon for social bookmarking where you can submit all your own pages. Also try squidoo.

Key "backlink check" into Google and use one of the sites you get to check your competitors' backlinks - they can be a useful starting point.

Also social bookmarking at high traffic sites are helpful for new sites to get indexed.

Hey guys, I started to work on my sitemap, but I believed I submitted one a year ago but only the xml file. I tried to create them again but this is whats showing:

Using gsitecrawler (.xml):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="gss.xsl"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84 http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd">

Using XML-Sitemaps.com (.xml):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset
xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9
http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd">


</urlset>

Are they both correct? Why is gsitecrawler longer than xml-sitemaps?
P.S Some of my old links have been removed but they are cached for some reasons. Where do I go from here?
I found my old sitemap:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset
xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

But all of them are not on my site since I'm using a cms, which changed the extension file e.g. 'http://www.dmaireroa.com/?page=service-print'

I found this on my google webmaster tools;

URL restricted by robots.txt
We encountered an error while trying to access your Sitemap. Please ensure your Sitemap follows our guidelines and can be accessed at the location you provided and then resubmit.
Click to expand...

This is what I'm using on my .htaccess

RewriteEngine on
#
# Externally redirect direct client requests for "/index.php" to "/"
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\ /index\.php
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://www.dmaireroa.com/ [R=301,L]
#
# Externally redirect non-canonical, non-blank hostname requests to canonical hostname
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www\.dmaireroa\.com)?$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.dmaireroa.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Click to expand...

I read up on google, and it seems that I should resubmit my sitemap. That will be the next step but just want to make sure my sitemap is good.

Thanks in advance
So what should I do from here?

I think that's all of it, but if there is anything else you can to add onto, then please don't hold back.

Thanks in advance

Some quality directory submissions can do you wonders when it comes to ranking...

Loads of great tips in here. Thanks! I will have to utilize these, as I build my new website. Lots to take in, but I'm really trying to figure out how to utilize the whole social bookmarking thing.
