One thing I have found very helpfull in submiting a new website is to upload an xml sitemap. Now I know Google say that they don't take this into consideration when indexing, but I think they do.
One things for sure if what nearly all the SEO forums are saying is true, they are getting a lot tighter on banning websites now and excluding them for any number of reasons.

XML sitemap in my opinion google does use, no question. I do not know the exact date but google stated about six months ago sandboxing websites before indexing them. The sandbox I like to think of a quaranteen. Google will hold you site from indexing up to six months. I was just lucky to miss this change in google. Now there is google jagger a new thing to read up on.
