Keep bleeding and make sure you keep the master cylinder full.

Very good thing to do so you dont introduce a new air buddle at the top of the system. When you open the bleed valve have steady pressure on the pedal.

Make sure you are not pressing the brake pedal all the way down to the ground...or else you will be drawing in air also.

Hum...I hope you are bleeding all four corners...and following the correct order. You cannot just bleed the rears.
