Always heat all surfaces to be soldered to the point that THEY melt the solder. A proper solder joint will be smooth and shiny (leaded solder) or smooth and dull (lead-free) NEVER pitted.
If the solder bubbles and pits, turn down the iron's temp.
If resoldering old solder joints, you can use a little flux and or add some fresh solder to rejuvenate the old solder. (preferred method: remove the old solder first).
