First, you should read the guides in the macro section:
Macros and Close-ups
Next, consider joining a macro outing. For example:

But without some basic skill and talent, you cannot get a "great pic" by relying on gear alone. You need to learn how to use your gear first. Then use your gear to express your creativity. Just buying a 60D and raynox 250 will not give you great pics. It requires patience, practice, luck and more practice.

Looking for a magic formula? There is none. Define "great pic" for yourself, first.
There are composition guidelines, exposure guidelines and others - but all these will always finally tell you "It depends .." - on your intention, your situation (light, object), your equipment, your skills ...

get the basics right, do the youtubes and read the tutorials .... then get out there make some like-mided friends to shoot with and shoot and review
there is only that much u can learn from tutorials and videos ..... have to go out and shoot
Its through fanatical doggedness and hard work that make these 'great pics' look deceivingly simple and wonderful

Nobody know how you could get a great pic. You would need to try out yourself, post a photo here then we know how you could improve on.
. What was your shutter speed and f-stop? Did you have to use a tripod?There's an entire section for Macro and Closeups where you can post your pictures and review other people's result.
My personal opinion: DOF too thin, a larger part should be in focus.
I suggest learning how to read what people have already replied to you. It will help you improve. See this right above your post?
