What is the secret to getting on page 1 of Google?

Hello. I have a site that I've chosen good keywords for, I've used about 40 different social bookmarking sites, I've tweeted it, shared it on Facebook, I ping it regularly. I'm fluctuating between page 4 and 7. What piece of the puzzle am I missing to get it on page 1?! Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

Hi fren...Though u do all those techniques like social bookmarking and in social networking, you have to do all other optimizing techniques like articles, blogs, classifieds, forums and all techniques.Because Google will crawl particular websites sometimes and if u lack of backlinks in those, u r lacked in ranking. So I suggest you to do all those off page techniques too.

Hi friend start social book marking, blog commenting,forum posting, article submission and social media sites.

The work you are doing is not perfect to get top 10 ranking in the keyword search. You have to increase number and quality of submission......
