Indexing Problem

Hello warriors!

I seem to be having a problem getting my site indexed with Google. The site was launched about 3 days before the Penguin update. I've added analytics, webmaster tools, submitted a site map, linked it to Facebook and Google+ fan pages, linked it to Twitter, built some back links though admittedly not many in comparison to other sites, and I've added content every weekday since it went live with the exception of yesterday. My biggest concern with my posts is that they're pretty short as I try to improve my writing skills. There is no spun content.

It's primarily a blog site related to a hobby of mine. It's further limited in that it's focused to a particular state though anyone outside the state who shares the hobby might be interested in it. The site is getting some minimal traffic but not much. Let's just say I'd kill for 10 unique visitors a day!

So what am I missing? Did I forget something along that way? I do want to mention that this site is more of an experiment for a larger project for a business. This is my first attempt at IM and I wanted to make sure I had a foundation ready for the larger project. That is not to say I'm not committed to this hobby website but I'm not necessarily expecting it to be my moneymaker.

Thanks for your help Warriors!
