Is this normal ?

I have recently put up a html site...and submitted a xml sitemap to webmaster tools.

The main index page got indexed within 3 days...this was about 1 week and a half ago...after that within 2 days, 2 other pages got indexed, the privacy policy and about us pages....

but that was it...I have 12 other pages waiting to be indexed at this time...

when I check my sitemap for indexed URLs it always says that the last download was the previous day....

however the other pages are not getting indexed....

when I do the same with wordpress, I always get a few new pages indexed just about every other day....

This is my first time creating a html site for marketing...I have always used wordpress, but don't know enough php and css to completely redesign them the way I want.

Is it just normal for html sites to take longer to index...? Or maybe I am doing something wrong ?

I am using h1 tags in the headers of all pages, however each page's H1 tag's content is different. Then I am using h2 tags as sub headers before the content of each page.

I am using text links for all pages...the design is very similar to a wordpress theme....2 columns with side bar menu...

any suggestions ?

Thanks
