Does anyone know any good websites/articles on strength and land training for swimming?
If not, any exercises that you find particularly successful for swimming!
Thanks :D

Every dry land article basically says the same thing:
Point One: Work with weights where you can perform the movements atleast 20 times consecutively (In other words, HIGH REPS not HIGH WEIGHT).
Point Two: Make certain that you are performing the excercise with the correct range of motion.
Personaly I do not think that Learning from a magazine will teach you proper form. The only way to know for certain that you are doing the excercises correctly is if you have a porfessional watch you. There is probably a trainer from your area who would be happy to come to your house, say for 3 one hour sessions, and get you on the right track.
