I'd like to hear some advice by Russians and Chinese coders, since they're clearly the top rated and being red in one of those countries seems normal.

Some of them are :

  1. Codeforces :)

  2. USACO

  3. SPOJ, POJ, COJ, etc...

I think you should start with usaco. In usaco you can learn about algorithms and data structures. Then try to solve problems of UVA. There are many good problems in UVA to challenge yourself. Start from easy problems and then harder problems. If you see you are better than now go to other sites and solve more and more problems :)

PRACTICE MORE TO BE AWESOME ;)
