Perhaps I should just wait for conferences and present them? This question is addressed to those of you who have had similar experiences of being rejected by journals; and yet you will not give up because you believe that what you have is worth sharing. Would you care to share your experiences of how you polished up your work and finally got it published? I'm sure there are quite a few of us in the RG community who will be encouraged to press on.
A few quick pointers to get your papers accepted:
1. Genuine, novel, good quality experiments and results.
2. Choice of appropriate journals.
3. Appropriate technical language.
4. Systematic presentation and non redundancy.
5. Wise choice of keywords, high quality images and appropriate image captions.
6. Should have an excellent introduction (should clearly state how your results can contribute a little bit MORE to the related scientific field.
7. Uniqueness of your research work.
8. No loose ends.
9. Most important of all, u should be able to CORRELATE YOUR RESULTS. The results should be analyzed from different points of view and they should be properly linked.
If you make sure that all these points are properly followed, then i guess you can get your paper published.
Presenting your research papers and writings in conferences in not a bad idea. I would suggest you consider that approach. Nevertheless, keep pressing on with the different journal bodies and be sure you are pushing through on the right ones related to your field of literature.
How did you chose the journals to submit your papers to? Do you think that your submissions were in line with the papers published by those journals?
Did you ever get any useful review with the rejections,or were the papers rejected without much explanation?
Do you know anybody who would be willing (and competent enough) to make a mentoring review of your papers, so as to allow you to spot what kind of improvement would be necessary?

K.R. Ganesh makes excellent points. I would add:
1. Be mindful of your grammar, spelling and paragraph construction (lead with the paragraph's main point).
2. Words - don't use two when one will do. Publishers always have to be mindful of space. Cut away all extraneous information regardless of how valuable you think it might be.
Good writing is just as important in presenting research as it is in creating a novel. Good luck.
Dear all, Thanks for your feedback. I will bear in mind the advice given.
i have 2 journals in which ur papers can be published. we are organizing a national conference on Information, communication and computer networks. if u have a paper on this topic u can visit http://www.tiaspg.tecnia.in/NC_6_APRIL_2013/home.php
Very frankly a new researcher needs a senior researcher already published as a co-author. This way he/she takes care of the technical aspects at times new researchers overlook, change the language or expression as per requirement and once you are on the path you will be then supporting other new researchers.
@Miranda, what is the are of your research? may be we can suggest you the journals for the same.
My area of research is innovations in teaching biology. I have to write for Sc education journal. Whatever happens I will still try. Thanks anyway :)
Miranda Yeoh we have journal for new emerging technologies and management sciences.
