What shall I do to make the ball spin much more?

Hi Jordan,
To get the ball to spin more you need to focus on the two basics. One is to get a thin brushing contact on the ball and the other is to get the contacts as fast as you can. This doesn't mean that the ball will travel fast, but rather that the bat will move as fast as possible when it contacts the ball.
Give this a try.
PingSkills has a DVD on Serving titled Serving Secrets Revealed that will help you with this problem.
Good luck with it. Being able to spin the ball is one of the best things about Table Tennis.
